Check whether a string contains any Chinese text
===================
```js
const containsChinese = require('contains-chinese');
let t = containsChinese('香港 is cool'); // true
let f = containsChinese('홍콩'); // false - not Chinese
```
This package provides a way to check whether a string contains any Chinese
text. The function will return `true` if there is at least one Chinese
character in the string.
Another package called `is-chinese` will return false if the string contains
at least one non-Chinese character, for example `Welcome to 香港` will
result in `false`.
In contrast, this package will return `true` for such text containing mixed
Chinese and non-Chinese text.
* `containsChinese` - returns `true` if the string has any Chinese characters.
* `containsChinese.HAN_REGEX` - contains the regex used for this check.
