Add more information / validity check for each scientific-name

[rizqirizqi]

Currently scientific-name-fetcher is using

1. Wikipedia API to search for scientific name description
2. GBIF API to check for the validity of the scientific name

It will be good if we add more information or validity checks so that scientific-name-fetcher becomes more useful to the community.

Here are some APIs/Libraries that we may use:

• [x] IUCN Redlist: https://apiv3.iucnredlist.org/api/v3/docs
• [x] RBGKew POWO: https://github.com/RBGKew/pykew
• [ ] PyTaxize https://github.com/sckott/pytaxize
• [ ] Global Names Resolver http://resolver.globalnames.org/api

We have an API for this, but that requires an auth token, which we may not be able to add to the code on the web

@Shubham-272 Who is "We"? What API is it? Is it only for internal usage? If the API requires an auth token, does the API have an authentication mechanism? Also, we can store something like a private token in the .env file if there's any. So that it is safe for public repo like this.

@rizqirizqi I meant "There's an API available for this", called as the IUCN API, the organization responsible for the nomenclature, etc (ref: https://apiv3.iucnredlist.org/api/v3/docs)

I've applied for a token, till then we can consider this. This will be the most authentic information we can get, and using scientific name also help even in the API call
