Description

The bulk download only works for today.
As from the website, the bulks can be downloaded from today AND the first day of the last quarters,
I ask the date format yyyymmdd to real download and not only as selector of already downloaded files. Just check whether a zip for that date exist and of download or break with a message.

Research direction

Start by locating the Python bulk-download entry point and tracing how the yyyymmdd value is currently used to select downloaded files. Check how ZIP files are found and downloaded for today, then verify that a requested date either downloads its existing ZIP or produces a clear failure message.
