Description

**Describe the bug**
Option contracts that have expired today are still considered "active" and can only be queried by specifying the status parameter to be "active".

For example, let's say today is 2024-09-20 and the time has passed 4:15pm, if I query QQQ options that expire on 2024-09-20 and if I specify the status parameter to be "inactive", no options will be returned. Conversely, the same query with the status parameter being "active" returns QQQ options that expire on 2024-09-20.

Since the options have expired after 4:15pm, there status after 4:15pm should be inactive. So it is the first query that should return data.

**To Reproduce**
On any trading day after 4:15pm, query this url and replace the date with the actual date: 'https://paper-api.alpaca.markets/v2/options/contracts?underlying_symbols=QQQ&expiration_date=2024-09-20'.

This bug can be reproduced by querying other late-close options as well.

**Expected behavior**
For the late-close options, their status should be active before 4:15pm on expiry date and inactive otherwise.

**Additional context**
Single name options, for instance, options of NVDA, appear not to have this bug.
