guess_field

Users sometimes do not know what kind of code or field their data contain.
This function tries to guess by comparing the similarity between a
user-supplied vector and all the codes included in the <code>countrycode</code>
dictionary.

Standardize country names, convert them into one of 40
different coding schemes, convert between coding schemes, and assign
region descriptors.
