Hunspell dictionary support

Dictionaries that people really use are composed of more than just word lists. Through v0.0.21, check-spelling merely relied on a word list (containing English words), and the ability for users to supplement that list with additional word lists.

With v0.0.22, users will be able to provide Hunspell dictionaries (.aff + .dic).

Configuration

You can add any Hunspell .dic to extra_dictionaries:
