IATI Updates

This application scrapes the IATI Registry API, to add some information and present other information in a more accessible way.

1. Frequency information added based on number of months in which any packages have changed
2. Hashes (to know whether a file has changed)
3. Issues (to know whether a file is recorded as being broken)
