Description

There is currently no way to ignore spelling issues in a string

In the below snippet Harper suggests american should be American, but this is not
a valid bibliography style. There is nowhere to place an ignore comment to remove this issue

```
#set bibliography(style: /* harper:ignore */ "american-physics-society")
```

Add some form of harper: ignore-line for these use cases

**Component**

Research direction

Start with the Core engine and Plugin/Extension components, using the bibliography example to trace how inline comments are handled and where spelling issues are produced. Define the ignore-line behavior and its syntax, then verify that the shown bibliography style no longer reports the spelling issue while ordinary spelling checks remain active.
