Is isCorrect a replacement for isValid?

While updating to ip-address v7 I noticed that isValid is gone.

Is isCorrect a replacement for that?

const address = new Address4(unknownAddress)
address.isCorrect()

You suggest using a try / catch but my problem is that my linter complains both when I do this:

try {
      new Address4(address)
} catch {
      return 'Invalid address'
}

Do not use 'new' for side effects.

and this:

try {
      const ipv4Address = new Address4(address)
} catch {
      return 'Invalid address'
}

'ipv4Address' is declared but its value is never read. ts(6133)
'ipv4Address' is assigned a value but never used. eslint@typescript-eslint/no-unused-vars

@lekoaf @nrone @jcheng5 I added a static isValid method in the just-released 7.1.0; you can use it like this:

if (Address6.isValid('::')) {
  console.log('valid!');
} else {
  console.log('invalid!');
}

Same here, isValid is mostly what I was using this library for.
