Open Climate Fix 104

Just summarising the updates that we plan to make to this dataset soon... I'll aim to make these updates within the next few days... (just waiting for the dataset to clone onto my machine!)

Changes to the dataset itself:

• Delete legacy files (see issue #13).
• See if Hugging Face can automatically detect the structure of the data. If not, add a YAML configs field at the top of README, linking to teh paths (using glob patterns), as describe here.

Changes to the README:

• Remove the suggestion to use load_dataset.
• Instead use @AUdaltsova 's suggestion from discussion #9.
• And maybe add also suggest using git clone to get all the data in one go, including a link to installing git-lfs, and mention that sudo apt install git-lfs works on recent Ubuntu versions. And highlight that you have to use hf.CO not .COM!). Closes #9.
• The timestamps are at the end of the period.
• Remove mention of the legacy files.
• Describe the new file structure.
• Provide some code for lazily opening the data in polars.
• Show how to convert wh into average watts. See #5.
• Explain how to cite the dataset
• The data goes back to 2010, and is updated every few months.
• Check if the PV systems that report 5-minutely are averaged when put into the 30min file.
• Create a new example.png (the old one has the wrong y-axis title!)
