As part of the release build of Spectrum, checks are run to test
functionality, ensure conformity with code conventions, and so on.

These checks are defined inside the
https://spectrum-os.org/git/spectrum/tree/release/checks[release/checks]
directory.  To run a check, use `nix-build`:

[source,shell]
[listing]
nix-build -I nixpkgs=https://spectrum-os.org/git/nixpkgs/snapshot/nixpkgs-rootfs.tar.gz release/checks/shellcheck.nix

Building the release/checks directory will run all checks.
