Fix the incorrect type field regex, and improve the title regex to
consider dcterms.title and dc.title (along with the DSpace language
variants like dc.title[en_US]), but ignore dc.title.alternative.

Apparently we were stuck on an older version of requests-cache due
to the fact that we were using the caret, which will never update
the left-most (major) version. Upstream requests-cache is currently
version 0.6.4, and there seems to have been some changes to the API.
This detects whether text has likely been encoded in one encoding
and decoded in another, perhaps multiple times. This often results
in display of "mojibake" characters.
For example, a file encoded in UTF-8 is opened as CP-1252 (Windows
Latin codepage) in Microsoft Excel, and saved again as UTF-8. You
will see strings like this in the resulting file:
- CIAT Publicaçao
- CIAT Publicación
The correct version of these in UTF-8 would be:
- CIAT Publicaçao
- CIAT Publicación
I use a code snippet from Martijn Pieters on StackOverflow to de-
tect whether a string is "weird" as determined by the excellent
"fixes text for you" (ftfy) Python library, then check if a weird
string encodes as CP-1252 or not. If so, I can try to fix it.

PEP8 recommends keeping imports at the top of the file. Also, I had
to re-work the issn/isbn so they didn't conflict with the functions
in check.py (flake8 warned about them being redefined).
Imports sorted with isort.
See: https://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0008/#imports
By using df[column] = df[column].apply(check...) we were re-writing
the DataFrame every time we returned from a check. We don't actuall
y need to return a value at all, as the point of checks is to print
a warning to the screen. In Python a "return" statement without a v
ariable returns None.
I haven't measured the impact of this, but I assume it will mean we
are faster and use less memory.
Allow overriding the directory for the requests cache. In the case
of csv-metadata-quality-web, which currently runs on Google's App
Engine, we can only write to /tmp.
This is no longer class-ified as "unsafe" as I have yet to see a
case where this was intentional, and it always causes issues when
you import the data in a DSpace repository.

We used to only check fields that had "date" in their name because
we were using DSpace's default dc.date.* fields. Now we are using
dcterms.issued so I will add that one as well.
We should also allow ISO 8601 extended in combined date and time
format. DSpace does not have a problem with dates in this format
and I have found some metadata that uses this date format.
For example: 2020-08-31T11:04:56Z
See: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ISO_8601
I just came across some metadata that had unnecessary multi-value
separators at the end of a field, causing a blank value to be used.
For example: "Kenya||Tanzania||"
According to PEP8 we should avoid scoped imports unless you have a
good reason. Here there are two cases where we do (issn and isbn),
but I will move the others to the global scope.
Python's built-in unicodedata library includes the is_normalized()
function starting with Python 3.8. This utility function allows us
to do the same thing with earlier Python versions.

Works decenty well assuming the title, abstract, and citation fields
are an accurate representation of the language as identified by the
language field. Handles ISO 639-1 (alpha 2) and ISO 639-3 (alpha 3)
values seamlessly.
This includes updated pipenv environment, test data, pytest tests
for both correct and incorrect ISO 639-1 and ISO 639-3 languages,
and a new command line option "-e".
ISO 639-1 uses two-letter codes and ISO 639-3 uses three-letter codes.
Technically there ISO 639-2/T and ISO 639-2/B, which also uses three
letter codes, but those are not supported by the pycountry library
so I won't even worry about them.
