Internally in this function, we use the datasets apg_families
and apg_orders - see their descriptions for the data in them.
The functions apgOrders() apgFamilies() are for scraping
current content from the http://www.mobot.org/MOBOT/research/APweb/
website
The datasets used in this function are from the most recent version of APGIII, Version 14 (http://www.mobot.org/MOBOT/research/APweb/)
A APGIII family or order name, the original name if the name is the same as APG has, or NA if no match found
