Israel (IL) postal code can be 5 or 7 digits - not just 5 digits #1365

Description

@AtomicBorg

isPostalCode only allows 5 digit postal codes for Israel (IL)

  • Currently Israel officially uses 7 digit postal codes but also still accepts 5 digit codes in practice

I'd make the PR directly but I do not have permission to create Pull Requests on this repository.

I propose modifying the existing line for IL to:
IL: /^(\d{5}|\d{7})$/,

Background on Israel postal codes; fundamentally, although officially switching to a 7 digit system in 2012 and supposedly deprecating 5 digit codes in 2013, 5 digit postal codes are still commonly used
