	Automated update of regions data

	TODOs:
	- [ ] Update the [owid-detect-country worker](https://github.com/owid/cloudflare-workers/tree/main/workers/owid-detect-country) using its update script
	- [ ] Check if there were any country renames, and if so:
	- [ ] Create redirects from old to new slugs
	- [ ] Take extra care :)
