Cyclic dependency on `stac-check`

stac-validator depends on stac-check (https://github.com/stac-utils/stac-validator/blob/main/setup.py#L38) which depends on stac-validator (https://github.com/stac-utils/stac-check/blob/main/setup.py#L23). As I see it, there's two strategies we could use to fix this:

  1. Make one of the libraries dependent on the other. E.g. stac-check would depend on stac-validator, and we would by default point people to use stac-check to get the full set of features.
  2. Merge the two libraries into one.

@gadomski I think option 1 is better? We could remove stac-check from stac-validator.

That makes the most sense to me.
