    Decrease severity of spelling-error-in-binary tag to experimental
    
    This tag very frequently gives false positives for a range of different
    reasons, so it shouldn't be anything higher than pedantic. In addition,
    true positives are almost always from upstream, so package maintainers
    shouldn't be responsible for spell-checking upstream's code.
