This is in response to announced change in AAVSO API URLs, due to come into effect on 2025/05/31. I've tested these with current state of the APIs - the new URLs do appear to be live, at present - but we probably should wait to integrate these until they have completed their update and I can test again with them in their new updated state.

The existing APIs are expected to work for some time - the 'requests' package does handle 301 redirects transparently, and it appears that the updated code is compatible enough to not require additional changes - but AAVSO has indicated that the redirects are temporary.

Confirmed with AAVSO that new URLs are considered 'live' and that moving to them ASAP is advisable. Also, redirects for old URLs should be functional for at least 3 months, so it should be some time before folks running existing code will break - but it'd be advisable to announce that at the appropriate time.
