Load wehoop WNBA Stats Officials

Loads game-level officials data scraped from the WNBA Stats API (boxscoresummaryv2-style outputs). One row per official-game pair. Backed by the wehoop-wnba-stats-data pipeline that reads raw JSONs from wehoop-wnba-stats-raw and publishes parquet/rds artifacts to the wnba_stats_officials release tag.

load_wnba_stats_officials_manifest() returns the per-season manifest CSV (season, row_count, generated_at_utc, source_endpoint) for the WNBA Stats officials release tag without downloading any season's full data.
