Detect the language of the text
Get text as a string param and return a map with language code
```elixir
MicrosoftTranslator.detect("Криївка")
%{languageCode: "uk"}
```
Or get a map with :text and :languageCodeHints (for specify the most likely languages).
> In some languages, one and the same word has the same spelling. For example, the English word “hand” is also written as “hand” in German, Swedish, and Dutch. If the text you transmit contains words like this, Translate may detect the source language incorrectly.
To avoid mistakes, you can use the languageCodeHints field to specify which languages should be given priority when determining the language of the text
```elixir
MicrosoftTranslator.detect(%{text: "Капелюх"})
%{languageCode: "uk"}
