Update to check-spelling v0.0.21

[jsoref]

Upgrades check-spelling to v0.0.21

The command to apply changes should now work on Windows (it requires
Perl, but I believe that's more or less present most of the time, and it
should walk you through the rest of the required tools).

There are a bunch of new features, the most important here are probably
being able to update the metadata from Windows. (If it doesn't work,
please @ me).

Also, candidate.patterns will automatically suggest patterns. You can
see them in patterns.txt, e.g.:

# Automatically suggested patterns
# hit-count: 3831 file-count: 582
# IServiceProvider
\bI(?=(?:[A-Z][a-z]{2,})+\b)

The metadata bits (the hit count/file count) don't have to be retained
(I hope they'll be useful in deciding whether/or not to add a pattern,
i.e. "how applicable is it?"), the comment hinting at what the pattern
does is probably worth retaining.

We've been using more or less this version for a while internally
(including talk-to-bot, and, I do have a pattern that could be used to
let people use that in forks, but, I'm going to skip that for now).

This weekend, I did some cleanup for act (to run check-spelling
locally), and some minor polish.

You can see the runs I made in

What's wrong with hardcoded?

[jsoref]

Most dictionaries distinguish between nouns and verbs ... Typically the noun loses the - and the verb / tenses don't.

E.g. setup (n). to set up (v).

I'm happy to drop.

English isn't my first language so I was a bit surprised about this. I was looking up whether there are any rules to forming compound words in English and the Cambridge dictionary says:

We usually make compound nouns with a noun + noun, with a verb (or a word made from a verb) + noun, or with an adjective + noun

Since hard-code is a adjective + verb, I suppose the dash is the right choice at all times?

[lhecker]

Wait... English considers words with a dash as proper compound words? As a German, I find that rather pathetic. 😏 Rechtsschutzversicherungsgesellschaften. 👻

I am OK with hard-coded. @jsoref thank you for always being on top of this stuff -- thanks entirely to you the spelling on our repository remains passable 😄
