Problem: We are using unicode symbols as visual clues in the program output that are not commonly supported and are therefore not always displayed as intended.
Solution: Remove the usage of these symbols, as the program output is already using other visual clues and the result will remain understandable for the user.
Problem: `hspec` and `tasty` are testing frameworks with
almost same functionality,
for historical reasons in xrefcheck we used different frameworks
for tests and links-tests, and in Serokell we prefer `tasty` now.
Solution: use only `tasty`,
rewrite code that use `hspec` using correspondance between
- `testGroup` and `describe`
- `testCase` and `it`
- `shouldBe` and `@?=`
Problem: When a file contains a reference to another file, and that
reference contains an anchor, that anchor is not checked.
Solution: Normalise relative anchor links before check.
Problem: At new resolver version we recieved obscure error when tried to cross-compile project to Windows on CI. Changing file-embed version to the old one doesn't help us.
Solution: inline content of this file into haskell source, using raw-string-qq library, that helps us to avoid escaping and typing newline characters.
Problem:
Currently we support only http and https links. If there is an `ftp://`
link, you will get exception.
Solution:
Use `ftp-client` to check connection to ftp, see response statuses and
check file existence. This produces adding new error types and small
refactoring.
Provide a test which is separate executable, where we have to pass CLA -
ftp host.

Problem: nowadays we want all files to store licensing information in
machine-readable format and to use reuse tool to check that. But the
repo is not REUSE compliant.
Solution: add `LICENSES` folder and licensing information for each
file.
