If you're asking for a function that converts 'KS' to 'Kan.', then, no,
there isn't anything like that at the moment.

For better or worse, localflavor is becoming a catch-all for that kind
of stuff, so write up a patch if you think it's genuinely useful. I
don't personally have strong opinions either way, since there are more
important states to me than the US ones and I don't find AP style to be
particularly convincing in a lot of cases, but I realise some people
like to use it, so it might well be worth including.
