Documentation for check-spelling

Configurable file size limits

Included in v0.0.20

Background

Historically, check-spelling would check any file it could open.

Some repositories have giant files.

Whether they're actually text files isn't relevant to check-spelling, unless they're excluded, it would process them.

Implementation

Default is to exclude files over 1 mb.

Configurable via largest_file.

Reported as large-file.

Files that are too large will be suggested for exclusion.

Future

I might also want to have check-spelling time itself and warn when it takes too long to scan a file. -- This would also be configurable.
