mkDict doesn't easily adapt to dictionaries that have multiple source
files but no readme, so I did not use it. Having a "generic" function
that then has per-language quirks is a bad abstraction.
A small utility function that copies a given file to hunspell's and
myspell's dirs and a separate one that copies a given readme file would
be more useful.
These aren't readily picked up by Hunspell-compatible software such as
Firefox or LibreOffice just yet, as they need to be setup to look for
the dictionaries at the proper paths. Nevertheless, one can point
Hunspell-compatible tools to, say, $HOME/.nix-profile/share/hunspell and
they will find the dictionaries:
% echo "bonjor" | hunspell -d fr-classique
Can't open affix or dictionary files for dictionary named "fr-classique".
% export DICPATH=$HOME/.nix-profile/share/hunspell
% echo "bonjor" | hunspell -d fr-classique
Hunspell 1.3.3

Added myself to maintainers.nix
* Remove package name
* Start with upper case letter
* Remove trailing period
Also reword some descriptions and move some long descriptions to
longDescription.
I'm not touching generated packages.
