load_wbb_game_rosters_manifest() returns the per-season manifest CSV (season, row_count, generated_at_utc, source_endpoint) for the game rosters release tag without downloading any season's full data.

Loads per-game rosters scraped from ESPN women's college basketball box scores. One row per athlete-team-game triple, with athlete identifiers, jersey, position, starter flag, and DNP status. Backed by the wehoop-wbb-data pipeline that reads raw JSONs from wehoop-wbb-raw and publishes parquet/rds artifacts to the espn_womens_college_basketball_game_rosters release tag.
