This upgrades to [v0.0.24](https://github.com/check-spelling/check-spelling/releases/tag/v0.0.24).
A number of GitHub APIs are being turned off shortly, so you need to upgrade or various uncertain outcomes will occur.
There's a new accessibility forbidden pattern:
> Do not use `(click) here` links
> For more information, see:
> * https://www.w3.org/QA/Tips/noClickHere
> * https://webaim.org/techniques/hypertext/link_text
> * https://granicus.com/blog/why-click-here-links-are-bad/
> * https://heyoka.medium.com/dont-use-click-here-f32f445d1021
```pl
(?i)(?:>|\[)(?:(?:click |)here|link|(?:read |)more)(?:</|\]\()
```
There are some minor bugs that I'm aware of and which I've fixed since this release, but I don't expect to make another release this month.
I've added a pair of patterns for includes and pragmas. My argument is that the **compiler** will _generally_ tell you if you've misspelled an include and the **linker** will _generally_ tell you if you misspell a lib.
- There's a caveat here: If your include case-insensitively matches the referenced file (but doesn't properly match it), then unless you either use a case-sensitive file system (as opposed to case-preserving) or beg clang to warn, you won't notice when you make this specific mistake -- this matters in that a couple of Windows headers (e.g. Unknwn.h) have particular case and repositories don't tend to consistently/properly write them.

Improves the following:
- Consolidates different code paths for easier maintenance.
- Removes the dependency on Windows Forms and creates the system tray
icon and handling through native Win32 APIs (massive thank you to
@BrianPeek for helping write the window creation logic and diagnosing
threading issues).
- Changing modes in Awake now triggers icon changes in the tray
(#11996). Massive thank you to @niels9001 for creating the icons.
Fixes the following:
- When in the UI and you select `0` as hours and `0` as minutes in
`TIMED` awake mode, the UI becomes non-responsive whenever you try to
get back to timed after it rolls back to `PASSIVE`. (#33630)
- Adds the option to keep track of Awake state through tray tooltip.
(#12714)
