    # exists, a replacement character which defaults to "?".
    #
    #    transliterate('Ærøskøbing')
    #    # => "AEroskobing"
    #
    # Default approximations are provided for Western/Latin characters,
    # e.g, "ø", "ñ", "é", "ß", etc.
    #
    # This method is I18n aware, so you can set up custom approximations for a
    # locale. This can be useful, for example, to transliterate German's "ü"
    # and "ö" to "ue" and "oe", or to add support for transliterating Russian
    # to ASCII.
    #
    # In order to make your custom transliterations available, you must set
    # them as the <tt>i18n.transliterate.rule</tt> i18n key:
    #
    #   # Store the transliterations in locales/de.yml
    #   i18n:
    #     transliterate:
    #       rule:
    #         ü: "ue"
    #         ö: "oe"
    #
    #   # Or set them using Ruby
    #   I18n.backend.store_translations(:de, i18n: {
    #     transliterate: {
    #       rule: {
    #         'ü' => 'ue',
    #         'ö' => 'oe'
    #       }
    #     }
    #   })
    #
    # The value for <tt>i18n.transliterate.rule</tt> can be a simple Hash that
    # maps characters to ASCII approximations as shown above, or, for more
    # complex requirements, a Proc:
    #
    #   I18n.backend.store_translations(:de, i18n: {
    #     transliterate: {
    #       rule: ->(string) { MyTransliterator.transliterate(string) }
    #     }
    #   })
    #
    # Now you can have different transliterations for each locale:
    #
    #   transliterate('Jürgen', locale: :en)
    #   # => "Jurgen"
    #
    #   transliterate('Jürgen', locale: :de)
    #   # => "Juergen"
    #
