Hotfix to CRAN vintage to allow download requests to fail gracefully. Want to merge with main branch to preserve download logic.

…riable, add logic to fail gracefully andto return a status message when verbose = TRUE.
… NULL with status message. Incorporate get_bls_headers into SALT and smart_bls_downloads logic.
…S firewall without setting a BLS_USER_AGENT header, similar to requiring an API.
…mal web browsing. Changed donttest to dontrun due to 403 errors from BLS on testing downloads.
…for get_* functions. Added read_bls_excel function to compartmentalize processing differences in downloading files and Excel workbooks for analysis. Reflowed get_salt to use new download logic and inncorporate graceful exit on failed download.
