Breaking changes

This change is meant to reduce the size of the package and improve performance by building the regular expression in build time instead of runtime.

• Change interface

  • Remove default import. Use named import instead: import { isbot } from "isbot";
  • Drop isbot attached functions from the interface. isbot.<SOMETHING> is no longer supported

• Drop support for EOL node versions

New features

import { <SOMETHING> }  from "isbot";
