Removes accents from strings.
- Use `String.prototype.normalize()` to convert the string to a normalized Unicode format.
- Use `String.prototype.replace()` to replace diacritical marks in the given Unicode range by empty strings.
```js
const removeAccents = str =>
str.normalize('NFD').replace(/[\u0300-\u036f]/g, '');
```
```js
removeAccents('Antoine de Saint-Exupéry'); // 'Antoine de Saint-Exupery'
```
