sponge(1) is a utility that reads input until
complete, then opens the output file, then
writes to it. This makes it useful in pipelines
that read and write to the same file.

- don't lint either contrib or crypto: these are both externally written
directories
- add additional linters for spelling (check common typos like teh ->
the)
- chmod linter checks for executible bit on bad files
- merge-conflict checks for merge conflict tokens then may have been
resolved incorrectly
- filename checks for back characters in filenames
- json for json syntax correctness
- remove history.immutable: it is meaningless on subversion, and causes
workflow problems when trying to use git. It it set to 'true' by
default with hg
