This PR adds two new fields, local_name and description, for 10 countries in the postal code dataset (postal_codes.json).
local_name provides the name of the country in its native language.
description provides a short description of the postal code format for that country.
Example entry after the update:
{
"country_code": "IN",
"country_name": "India",
"postal_code_regex": "^[1-9][0-9]{5}$",
"sample_valid": "110001",
"sample_invalid": "000000",
"local_name": "भारत",
"description": "Indian PIN codes are six digits; the first digit represents the postal zone."
}
Note: This PR updates only 10 out of 52 countries. Additional countries can be added in future contributions.
