v2.0.0-beta.1

What's Changed

Breaking (potentially)

• Turkey changed its name to Türkiye, and library now reflects that. Turkey is still recognised.

   // v1.5.6
   name('TR') // => Turkey
   name('🇹🇷') // => Turkey
  
   // v2.0.0
   name('TR') // => Türkiye
   name('🇹🇷') // => Türkiye
  
   // Both: v1.5.6, v2.0.0
   code('Turkey') // => TR
   flag('Turkey') // => 🇹🇷

• More input might match now, ex.

   // v1.5.6
   flag('Turks and Caicos') // => 🇹🇨
   flag('Turks & Caicos')   // => undefined
  
   // v2.0.0
   flag('Turks and Caicos') // => 🇹🇨
   flag('Turks & Caicos')   // => 🇹🇨
