checks/words ended the match at the word itself, so a plural passed: "control planes" and "flavors" were fine while "control plane" and "flavor" were retired. hq's words.py had the same flaw and is fixed in novox/hq#176.

The pattern now accepts s or es on the last part of the word. Anything else joined on is still another word, so "flavored" and "mesh-console-x" do not match.
checks/words/main_test.go covers the change. It fails on the old pattern for three of its cases and passes on the new one.
merge-check.sh now runs that test before it runs the check.
Run over every module, the new pattern finds nothing: 12 retired words, none in the 27409 strings of 510 files.

Checks: sh merge-check.sh passes locally. The manifests were not checked, because no controller is built beside this check.

The pattern ended at the word, so control planes and flavors passed where
control plane and flavor fail. It now takes s or es on the last part; a
test holds it, and merge-check runs that test before the check.
