Remove duplicated spelling words from markdownlint

Amy Qualls requested to merge aqualls-move-terms-to-vale into master

What does this MR do and why?

We have meant to clean up the list of spelling words in .markdownlint-cli2.yaml for a long time, and we just never have. However, we should do it in multiple passes. This MR updates the markdownlint configuration file to remove any spelling items that already exist in the Vale spelling-exception list. No new terms are added.

Ramifications of this change: When these words are mis-capitalized, the result becomes a Vale warning, rather than a markdownlint error.

The words that remain in .markdownlint-cli2.yaml after this MR are NOT in the Vale spelling-exception list. I'd rather use a separate merge request to evaluate whether we want to add them to the Vale list.
