Faroe Islands corrections #1031

Hi there, I post here since this is an issue related to the Faroe Islands data.

While the airports data includes airports located in the "Faroe Islands" country, there's no reference to "Faroe Islands" in the countries datafile . Instead the ISO 3166-1 code for this country, FO is present as follows: "Faeroe Islands","FO","FO". This makes the two datasets incompatible if using them in the same database/project (eg. with a foreign key from airports pointing to the countries table).

My suggestion is to unify the airports and country entries in the respective datafiles to either "Faroe Islands" or "Faeroe Islands".
