Create Micro-package to Flatten/Format `user_agent` data for `ATM`

[nelsonic]

while reading the code: https://github.com/elixir-inspector/ua_inspector/blob/master/lib/ua_inspector.ex and tests: https://github.com/elixir-inspector/ua_inspector/blob/master/test/ua_inspector/database/init_test.exs

I decided to create a thin wrapper that flattens the user_agent data into the format that we need.

Spoiled for choice on package names:

https://hex.pm/packages/ua

https://hex.pm/packages/user_agent

Todo

• [ ] Create ua package following our usual template 🆕
• [ ] Flatten/format the data we need and return as Map 🧑‍💻
• [ ] Write extensive tests using available user_agent data
• [ ] Publish ua package to Hex.pm 📦
• [ ] Use ua in ATM :shipit:

P.S: Sponsoring https://github.com/mneudert for as long as we use the fine work he has done. #first

Just a way to say "thanks" for the code. 🙏

Sadly, getting the following:

UserAgent.parse("Mozilla/5.0 (iPad; CPU OS 7_0_4 like Mac OS X) AppleWebKit/537.51.1 (KHTML, like Gecko) Version/7.0 Mobile/11B554a Safari/9537.53")
%{
  browser_family: :unknown,
  client: :unknown,
  device: :unknown,
  os: :unknown,
  os_family: :unknown,
  user_agent: "Mozilla/5.0 (iPad; CPU OS 7_0_4 like Mac OS X) AppleWebKit/537.51.1 (KHTML, like Gecko) Version/7.0 Mobile/11B554a Safari/9537.53"
}

I'd have thought this user_agent would be fairly straightforward to parse ... 💭
