Use of macrons edit

(Sorry, messed up the undo revision without a proper summary) I don't know the exact process for this, but I have made the change due to the use of pūriri being used by known sources such as NZPN (https://www.nzpcn.org.nz/flora/species/vitex-lucens/), Te Ara (https://teara.govt.nz/en/photograph/11671/puriri-berries-and-flowers), Landcare Research (https://maoriplantuse.landcareresearch.co.nz/WebForms/PeoplePlantsDetails.aspx?PKey=1aaa3c96-8bb1-454d-8498-d3396e0a1b30), Te Papa (https://collections.tepapa.govt.nz/category/803), Auckland Council (https://ourauckland.aucklandcouncil.govt.nz/news/2018/1/ancient-forests/), and is the correct use as per the Māori dictionary (https://maoridictionary.co.nz/word/6304). It is also used in recent news articles from various sources (one of several from Stuff: https://www.stuff.co.nz/life-style/homed/300508225/how-these-gardeners-survived-lifes-highs-and-lows, The Herald: https://www.nzherald.co.nz/bay-of-plenty-times/news/native-plants-used-to-halt-stream-bank-erosion/NDJJKZIOI2GEJL7BMXNXY6VXHM/, and Newshub (https://www.newshub.co.nz/home/new-zealand/2021/05/tree-activist-says-auckland-council-has-no-respect-for-the-dead-after-firewood-giveaway.html), along with scientific literature (e.g. https://conbio.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.1111/csp2.282). This also follows the increasingly large number of articles changed to reflect the correct tohutō, albeit largely among animal species (but examples exist such as pōhutukawa).
