Subject: [PATCH] Add south_korea alias, korea tags for North Korea

`Emoji.find_by_alias("south_korea")` returned nil, so the South Korea flag
had no alias containing either word of its name: searching "south" matched
south_africa, south_sudan and south_georgia_south_sandwich_islands, while
"korea" matched the north_korea alias. South Korea carried "korea" as a
tag, but alias lookup never sees tags and pickers that do search them rank
tag hits below alias hits, so the flag was effectively reachable only by
typing `kr`.

Added `south_korea` as a second alias, following the existing
eu/european_union shape of a short canonical name plus the full country
name. North Korea had no tags at all, so it was not findable by tag search
either; added korea/north there to close the same gap from the other side.

The existing aliases stay in first position, so `Character#name` still
returns "kr" and "north_korea" and the `:kr:` / `:north_korea:` references
are unchanged. `db/dump.rb` copies existing aliases and tags verbatim when
rebuilding from the Unicode data, so these additions survive regeneration.
