exclude plural as well

here's an example how we run codespell: https://github.com/haproxy/haproxy/runs/2496511962?check_suite_focus=true

Run codespell -c -q 2 --ignore-words-list ist,hist,wan,ca,cas,que,ans,te,nd,referer,ot,uint,iif,fo,keep-alives,dosen --skip="CHANGELOG,Makefile,*.fig,*.pem"
./include/haproxy/quic_loss.h:141: hel ==> help, hell, heal
./include/haproxy/quic_loss.h:143: hel ==> help, hell, heal
./include/haproxy/connection-t.h:644: unx ==> unix
./include/import/ist.h:849: ists ==> its, lists

since I specified --ignore-words ist, I expect ists to be ignored as well

(as a workaround I'll it to ignore list)

This feels overly simplistic/far more involved than it first seems to me. Are you saying you want codespell to ignore ist and hence automaticallys ists but not other variants such as a different prefix hist or suffix isty or longer suffix isted?

Does this also mean you want to ignore sheeps as a typo (for example, I'm struggling to come up with a good one off the top of my head)?

Yeah that seems like the safest option to me.
