Spelling is now checked live as you type, fully offline, using the
pure-Rust `spellbook` crate to read Hunspell .aff/.dic dictionaries (no C
libhunspell — the binary stays self-contained; ldd unchanged).
- Canadian (en-CA, default) and British (en-GB) English dictionaries are
compiled in; more languages are auto-discovered from system Hunspell
folders and ~/.config/md-manuscript/dictionaries/. A "Spelling" row in
the top bar toggles live checking and picks the dictionary.
- Misspellings are underlined in red; right-clicking a word opens a menu
of suggested corrections. A results-panel and one-click fixes work too.
- Checks run on a background thread, debounced ~400ms after the last edit.
Prose is extracted with pulldown-cmark so code spans, code blocks and
link targets are skipped; ALL-CAPS initialisms are ignored.
- LanguageTool still layers on top: when its results are fresh they own
the underlines (spelling + grammar); once you edit, the offline checker
resumes. The editor underlines, issues panel and fix-apply logic are
now shared between the two sources.
Bundled dictionaries are SCOWL-derived under a permissive license (kept
in dictionaries/<lang>/license). Adds spell-check unit tests (tokenizer,
code-block skipping, offset mapping, en-CA/en-GB spelling); 40 tests pass.

Check the current file against a LanguageTool server (typically a local
instance) from a background thread. Issues are underlined in the editor
(red spelling, blue grammar) and listed in a bottom panel with one-click
fixes that re-align the remaining matches.
A menu bar (File / View / Settings) exposes a LanguageTool settings
dialog with discrete scheme / host / port / token / language fields, an
endpoint preview, and a Test connection button. Config stores the parts
and assembles the base URL. The token is sent as a bearer header.
Uses ureq with a statically-linked rustls backend, so both http and
https endpoints work with no new runtime library dependencies.

A 📂 button beside each path field opens a native picker: a folder
chooser for the workspace and an .odt save dialog for the export (which
appends the extension if omitted). Uses rfd with the XDG Desktop Portal
backend, so there is no GTK build dependency and no new shared library
at runtime.
