Description

Currently, td_parser fails when looking at a new LabThing using the current version of the Python server. I believe this is because it's expecting to find links in a list called links for each affordance, but they are actually in a list called forms. This is the same API change addressed by #4, in a different place in the client code.

Research direction

Start by locating td_parser and compare its affordance parsing with the API change described in issue #4. Confirm how the current Python server represents affordance forms, update the parser's handling accordingly, and verify that it can process a new LabThing without failing.
