This Pull Request implements the Big Mac Index visualization and API as part of the project to make global Big Mac price data accessible and easy to explore. It includes:

Big Mac Index Data: Pulls and visualizes the official dataset from The Economist.
Interactive Map: Displays Big Mac prices around the world using Leaflet.js.
Chart.js Integration: Provides bar charts and historical data visualizations.
RESTful API Endpoints: Allows programmatic access to the Big Mac Index data, including endpoints like /data, /chart_data, and /country/.
Responsive UI: Features a modern design with a glassmorphic Navy & Gold theme.

This PR also addresses the issue where the official Big Mac Index website is behind a paywall (#35), making the data publicly accessible through an easy-to-use interface and API.

HI @ahmedsamir46
Can this PR also download the latest Bigmac Index, since this project here has been abandoned?
