gountries.New().FindCountryByName("United States of America")

does not return a country where this does

gountries.New().FindCountryByName("United States")

"United States of America" should be valid based on https://github.com/pariz/gountries/blob/9f809e356e5cc61e570a77e6b7fe5f5eafab3576/data/yaml/countries/us.yaml#L3

name:
  common: United States
  official: United States of America

Please extend this method to include official and native text.

Thank you!
