Proposed solution for Crown Copyright in ca.py

Step 1. Tag works as <Crown> Copyrighted by searching for particular terms in dataset <Publisher> field, eg. "Queen's Printer".

Step 2. For copyright determination, where <Author> = <Crown>, follow steps in flowchart. Where <Author> = <Crown> + <Co-Author>, copyright status is determined on basis of <Co-Author> copyright held.

Does this make sense? If so, please implement. Andy, can you please input the Crown + Co-Author step in the PD Flowchart and repost?

Crown Copyright > Published? > Yes > Co-Author? > Yes = go to Joint Authorship, No = PD at publication + 50.
