docs: switch from UK to US spellings
Metadata
Current evaluation
Merged as commit 3af48bf02: PR #5573 standardized 14 snapcraft doc files on US spellings (+21/-21), for Open Documentation Academy task #244. Approved by 2 reviewers after the author signed the CCLA; init.rst was skipped as a false flag.
Resolution: closed resolved
Reason: The PR itself was merged into main as commit 3af48bf02 after 2 approvals and CLA sign-off, completing the ODA #244 spelling pass. Reviewer medubelko confirmed the one outstanding item, docs/reference/commands/init.rst, does not exist in-repo because it is generated from an upstream package, and doc-cheat-sheet-myst.md was intentionally left as-is.
