[ThomasRunting]

CSpell seems to scan svg,msi,dmg,png files from no known reason. On v6

In MegaLinter, spelling linters have a special mode lint_all_other_linters_files ... but also a list of file extensions , including "*" since v6, I don't remember why I added that but it clearly is wrong ^^
I try to fix that in PR #1649

[ThomasRunting]

i can confirm it is fixed

Thanks for your feedback :)
