Description
The current crate appears to use an older snapshot of OpenCC dictionaries/configs.
Would it be possible to:
- sync dictionaries with a newer upstream OpenCC release (e.g. [ver 1.3.1](https://github.com/BYVoid/OpenCC/releases/tag/ver.1.3.1))
- document which upstream OpenCC version the data is derived from
- optionally add a script/workflow for future synchronization
- add compatibility tests against upstream OpenCC golden outputs
Many OpenCC conversion differences today are caused more by outdated phrase dictionaries/configs than by the conversion engine itself.
Keeping dictionaries reasonably up-to-date would significantly improve compatibility with the official OpenCC behavior.

Research direction
Start by locating the crate's bundled OpenCC dictionaries and configuration data, then compare them with the upstream OpenCC ver.1.3.1 release. Review how the current data is sourced and identify where its upstream version should be documented. Done means updated data, documented provenance, and compatibility coverage using upstream golden outputs; synchronization automation is optional.
