Get currency for each country

Changes made

1. Changed library package from countryFlags to country_data.
   The latter better conveys the information contained in the library.
   The former had only country flags as extra information apart from the
   country identifiers. This version and upcoming versions will have more
   information about a country.
2. Cleaned code base and improve documentation

The current version have the currency for each country. Subsequent
versions will have more country data

Get list of currencies of the world

In this version, it is now possible to get the list of currencies of the world

World.init(getApplicationContext()); // initialize data
List<Currency> currencies = World.getAllCurrencies()
// Currency [country=NZ, name=New Zealand Dollars, code=NZD, symbol=$]

Get Country currency

In this release, one a Country also has a Currency

Get the currency from a country by calling

World.init(getApplicationContext());
Country cameroon = World.getCountryFrom("cm");
Currency curr = cameroon.getCurrency();

Get countries of the world, and their flags as well as country codes

This release is provides a more intuitive interface for the user.

Major changes include:

1. Removal of ability of user to create a country in their app.
   In real world, countries are not created like that.

2.To get a country, a user has to know any of the four identifiers of the country

• The country name eg Sweden
• The country numeric code eg 752
• The alpha2 of the country eg "se"
• The alpha3 of the country eg "swe"

With these, Sweden can be created alongside its flag using

World.init(getApplicationContext()); 
// you call this just once in your program. It wraps a singleton 
// that initializes everything that the library is to offer
Country sweden = World.getCountryFrom("sweden"|"se"|"swe"|752); 

3. To get the flag of a country, the user needs any of the identifiers mensioned in 2 above, then using two methods

World.init(getApplicationContext());
final int swedishFlag = World.getFlagOf("sweden"|"se"|"swe"|752);

4. If you are interested in all the countries of the world

World.init(getApplicationContext());
final List<Country> countries = World.getAllCountries(); 
// This list cannot be modified by adding, sorting or removing an element. 
// You can only retrieve information therein
```¨
NB: All Country identifiers have getters so you can use that to retrieve a Country
from `List<Country> countries`

Give a star to the repository to get updates of new features.

Get country list with flags

In this release, you can now get all the countries of the world and their flags by calling

CountryFlag.getInstance(getApplicationContext()); // loads the countries and flags

final List<Country> countryList = CountryFlag.allCountriesAndFlags(); // all country list
