Unicode CLDR (Common Locale Data Repository) data and Lua interface.
## What is CLDR?
From the [CLDR][cldr] website:
> The Unicode CLDR provides key building blocks for software to support the world's languages, with the largest and most extensive standard repository of locale data available.
## What does this data set include?
For now, data and interfaces will be added on an as-needed basis. Here is a basic rundown of the data available upstream vs. what this library currently provides.
All included data is based on Unicode's [CLDR 42][cldr-notes] data set.
### Locale-specific patterns for formatting and parsing:
* [ ] dates
* [ ] times
* [ ] timezones
* [ ] numbers and currency values
* [ ] measurement units
* [ ] …
### Translations of names:
* [ ] languages
* [ ] scripts
* [ ] countries and regions
* [ ] currencies
* [ ] eras
* [ ] months
* [ ] weekdays
* [ ] day periods
* [ ] time zones
* [ ] cities
* [ ] and time units
* [ ] emoji characters and sequences (and search keywords)
* [ ] …
### Language & script information:
* [ ] characters used
* [ ] plural cases
* [ ] gender of lists
* [ ] capitalization
* [ ] rules for sorting & searching
* [ ] writing direction
* [ ] transliteration rules
