For clarity, is the main reason for hard coding this list to avoid reading the file system for each commit?

@kgryte Yes, precisely; don't want to reconstitute the list of namespaces on each commit (tested it and it does become very sluggish indeed otherwise). PR contains script to regenerate the list, and I don't believe it sometimes not being up-to-date would have large consequences.

One set of tests which I think are missing here are commit messages with bodies. E.g., see https://github.com/stdlib-js/stdlib/blob/develop/docs/contributing/moving_packages.md#7-commit-the-changes-to-the-parent-namespace where there is an instance where including a prefix is acceptable.

In short, would be good to confirm that this lint rule only applies to commit subjects, not bodies.
