ArgentinAPI 0.2.1

Fixed get_argentinian_holidays() to dynamically accept years up to the current year instead of being hardcoded to 2025, preventing validation errors in future years.
Improved error handling in get_argentinian_holidays() to fail gracefully with informative messages when the API is unavailable, as required by CRAN policy.
Improved error handling in get_argentine_senators() to fail gracefully with informative messages when the API is unavailable, as required by CRAN policy.
Fixed test for get_argentine_senators() to properly handle NA values in date fields when checking sort order.
Updated validation messages to use dynamic year limits based on current date.

Added tryCatch() blocks to API calls in get_argentinian_holidays() and get_argentine_senators() to handle network errors gracefully.
Changed validation errors to warnings with NULL returns to comply with CRAN’s requirement that packages using Internet resources must not generate check errors when resources are unavailable.
