whatlanguage with czech language support

by Jiri Hradil (jiri@hradil.cz)

This is a fork of https://github.com/peterc/whatlanguage

The original gems works with Dutch, English, Farsi, French, German, Italian, Pinyin, Swedish, Portuguese, Russian, Arabic, Finnish, Greek, Hebrew, Hungarian, Korean, Norwegian, Polish and Spanish out of the box.

This gem adds the Czech language. Nothing else was added nor updated.

The czech word list was extracted from Milan Svoboda's (and collaborators) GNU/FDL English to Czech dictionary available at http://slovnik.zcu.cz. Thanks Milan and other collaborators/authors: http://slovnik.zcu.cz/spoluprace.php
