chore(release): v3.4.1

[dmythro]

Release v3.4.1 — bundles the country-name alias work merged since v3.4.0 (#178 + #179).

User-facing

getCountryCode(name) now resolves a curated set of alternative and former names, fixing name→code lookups that broke on ISO renames:

• Former ISO short names: Czech Republic, Cape Verde, Turkey, Swaziland, Macedonia, Burma.
• Common short forms: UK, Britain, US, USA, America, UAE, Holland.
• Historical / colonial names: Persia, Ceylon, Siam, Rhodesia, Abyssinia, Formosa, Zaire, …
• Spelling variants: Byelorussia, Rumania, Bahrein, … and diacritic-free Cote d'Ivoire, Turkiye.

Also cleans the Myanmar (Burma) name hack → name is now Myanmar with Burma/Myanmar (Burma) as aliases. New optional alias?: string[] on ICountry; a guard test prevents any ambiguous alias. Adds ~1.2 KB to countries.min.json; non-breaking.

Release mechanics

• Version → 3.4.1 across composer.json, root + packages/countries package.json, dist/package.json, and the lockfile.
• dist/ rebuilt and committed (the release exception to the no-dist-in-PRs rule) — aliases baked into countries.min.json, CSV, SQL, and the JS bundles.
• Tooling: the version-bump script now runs bun run format at the end, so the JSON.stringify vs Biome array-wrapping mismatch no longer fails bun run lint (hit during this release).

After merge

gh release create v3.4.1 creates the tag and triggers the npm publish workflow.

Verified: bun run ci green — lint, 3 typecheck targets, build, 22 tests.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

Package versions in the Composer root manifest, workspace manifest, and countries package manifest are bumped from 3.4.0 to 3.4.1. The versioning script now runs bun run format from the repository root after updating dependencies and logs that Biome formatting was applied.

Poem

A rabbit bumps the version bright,
From three-four-zero to three-four-one tonight.
Bun hops through installs with care,
Biome combs each curly hair.
“Done!” the meadow sings with cheer.

Pull request overview

Release v3.4.1 updating published artifacts to include the recently merged country-name alias support in getCountryCode(name), along with the corresponding data regeneration and version bumps across the JS + Composer distributions.

Changes:

• Bumps versions to 3.4.1 across workspace/package artifacts (package.json, composer.json, dist/package.json, etc.)
• Rebuilds and commits dist/ outputs so aliases and the Myanmar name cleanup are reflected in shipped JSON/CSV/SQL and JS bundles
• Updates the version-bump script to run bun run format after writing JSON + updating the lockfile to avoid Biome formatting drift
