Detailed Description of the Pull Request / Additional comments

I've replaced the dictionary directory with allow and reject. When terminal got check-spelling, I didn't have a way to do allow/reject (but they were added a while ago). With this release, the bot will complain about items that are in user managed files that wouldn't be valid, this is mostly -s in dictionary files, but it also includes numbers 0..9 and _. If a specific token needs to be accepted but not its sub-elements, the item should be added to patterns.txt instead (D2DERR_SHADER_COMPILE_FAILED is an example).

With this version, check-spelling defaults to only considering tokens with at least 3 letters. It's possible to tune it back to 2 (or even 1), but in testing, the 2 character tokens have ended up not being worthwhile. (This can be adjusted if it turns out that people manage to misspell two character tokens often enough to justify checking them.)

Validation Steps Performed

I ran a number of passes of the spell checker in https://github.com/check-spelling/terminal/actions (note: I tend to delete this repository, so this link may be dead at some point, and action run logs expire).
