Custom aliases + more currencyies #9

Hi, would it be possible to add the following things?

Load "currencies.json" from a local file. It can just be inside the plugin folder
Support aliases. I keep typing EURO or EU and always forget it's EUR. Would be nice if I could add my own aliase to some of the currencies. Or maybe just support fuzzy search on the current ones.

Thanks!

Hi, these look like some nice additions—one of the issues with a local currencies.json file will be that it will be outdated and it will be up to the users to update it. Aliasing is an idea that I wanted to do from day one, but always messed up while implementing it.

Could someone help with implementing these functionalities? In the meantime, I will try coming up with a simple approach.
