Provide an option for spellchecking patches #3044

There are tools that spellchecks patches using codespell (checkpatch.pl ^1, pre-commit ^2). However, it would be convenient to check patches by codespell without external tools. With spellchecking patches, I mean spellchecking of added and changed words/lines.

@ligurio Isn't this a (partial?) duplicate of #139? Would actions-codespell help you for your your use case?
