simplemma.lang_detector import no longer working

[osma]

I noticed that the language detection example in the README is no longer working in current main version.

Using simplemma==0.9.1 it works as advertised (although the returned ratios are a bit different from those in the README):

>>> from simplemma import in_target_language, lang_detector
>>> lang_detector('"Exoplaneta, též extrasolární planeta, je planeta obíhající kolem jiné hvězdy než kolem Slunce."', lang=("cs", "sk"))
[('cs', 0.8), ('unk', 0.19999999999999996), ('sk', 0.1)]

But with current main version the import of simplemma.lang_detector is not working:

>>> from simplemma import in_target_language, lang_detector
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
ImportError: cannot import name 'lang_detector' from 'simplemma'

It works if I change lang_detector to langdetect:

>>> from simplemma import in_target_language, langdetect
>>> langdetect('"Exoplaneta, též extrasolární planeta, je planeta obíhající kolem jiné hvězdy než kolem Slunce."', lang=("cs", "sk"))
[('cs', 0.75), ('sk', 0.125), ('unk', 0.25)]

Should the documentation be fixed to correspond with the current naming in the code, or the function langdetect renamed back to lang_detector so the API remains stable?

I guess we can use an alias an import it during init. This was a question we discussed with @juanjoDiaz but something must have got lost around the way.

This has already been mentioned in #64.

• The 0.9.1 readme says: from simplemma.langdetect import in_target_language, lang_detector
• The current readme says from simplemma import in_target_language, lang_detector

So we could go for an alias lang_detector = langdetect in the init file or we could simply rename the function.

In any case, the release notes have to mention that the import strategy is slighly different.
