Overview

Small documentation and consistency cleanups across Javadoc, comments, and Markdown. No functional changes: only comments, Javadoc, docs, and config-file whitespace are touched.

Changes

  • Trailing newline at EOF. Add the missing final newline to three .github config files (dependabot.yml, codeql-analysis.yml, maven.yml).
  • American spelling. Convert British spellings in Javadoc, comments, and docs: Honoured to Honored, flavour(s) to flavor(s), synchronise to synchronize, standardised to standardized, and defence to defense.
  • Latin abbreviations. Spell them out in Javadoc and comments: e.g. to "for example", i.e. to "that is", and etc. to "and so on".

Upstream CONTRIBUTING.md boilerplate and a spotbugs filter URL path were intentionally left untouched.

Add the missing EOL at end of file to the three .github config files,
and convert British spellings (Honoured, flavour(s), synchronise,
standardised, defence) to American in Javadoc, comments, and docs.
Spell out e.g. as "for example", i.e. as "that is", and etc. as
"and so on" in Javadoc and comments. Leaves the upstream
CONTRIBUTING.md boilerplate and the spotbugs URL path untouched.
