"statics" is a real English word (the physics of forces in equilibrium; also Phoenix.VerifiedRoutes :statics). It currently lives in the rare dictionary, which is on by default, so legitimate uses are flagged as a typo of "statistics".

Remove the entry rather than keep it in rare. That matches the direction in the issue: remove it, or at least stop treating it as a default hit.

Fixes #3614

"statics" is a real English word (e.g. the physics of forces in
equilibrium, and Phoenix.VerifiedRoutes :statics). Flagging it as a
typo of "statistics" produces false positives in default runs.

Fixes codespell-project#3614
