🐞 Some SRD statblocks have incorrect hit dice calculations

Expected Behavior

Ghoul (as an example) should show its hit points as 22 (5d8) but shows 22 (5d8 + -1) instead

Current behaviour

Some statblocks have an incorrect hit_dice value (though a correct hp value) like Ghoul, Giant Ape, and Giant Boar (there are probably many others but these are just the ones I quickly found)
It seems to just be 1 less than it should, but I haven't looked super deep so there might be others are off by more than that

I noticed it in obsidian from the Ghoul statblock and then found the other 2 by looking at the commit (bbd1bf8, which was fixing #8) that last changed Ghoul's hit_dice. It should be noted though that not all hit dice that were imported in that commit are wrong, the Giant Badger's hit dice for example is correct.

Reproduction

add a statblock of a creature with incorrect hit dice (e.g. Ghoul) to a note

Possible solution

Some hit dice were incorrect in commit bbd1bf8 when fixing #8
Assuming the hp value is correct for all statblocks and the dice part of hit_dice is correct then the hit dice could be recalculated programmatically by going through all the statblocks and comparing the hp vs the (average) result of the hit_dice and adding the difference to the hit dice formula if it's different.

Otherwise importing the hit dice from scratch from another source could be an option.
