Subject: scripts/spelling: recommend blocklist/allowlist instead of blacklist/whitelist
This commit recommends the patches to replace 'blacklist' and 'whitelist'
with the 'blocklist' and 'allowlist', because the new suggestions are
incontrovertible, doesn't make people hurt, and more self-explanatory.
