Add a Normalized Name field to more easily identify cards that are duplicated under the deck rules. #450

There are many symbols and statuses on a card name that affects what counts as a "Duplicate" card in a deck build. By having a normalized representation, we can use this field to check what exactly counts as what name.

Although we could program filters, we risk getting them wrong or missing new symbols as they are released. It would go a long way for anyone using this data for deck-building purposes.
