Retrieve country names by giving country codes.

All this is:

- A JSON object of all country codes and their country names

- A function to safely retrieve items from that object

Features:

* ES6 ready

* Case insensitive ('gb' and 'GB' both work)

* Function `getCountry` checks existance of property with `object.hasOwnProperty`

* Returns `false` if your query does not exist

getCountry('gb'); // Returns "United Kingdom"
