GHA: add a job scanning for "bad words" in markdown

This means words, phrases or things we have decided not to use - words that
are spelled right according to the dictionary but we want to avoid. In the
name of consistency and better documentation.

  CURL *curl = curl_easy_init();
  if(curl) {
    CURLcode res;
    curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_URL, "https://example.com/");
    curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_RANDOM_FILE, "junk.txt");
    res = curl_easy_perform(curl);
    curl_easy_cleanup(curl);
  }
