owidapi (development version)

• Fixed owid_get_catalog() returning only the first 1000 charts. Datasette caps the _size=max parameter at its max_returned_rows setting, so the catalog was silently truncated and owid_search() searched only a fraction of it. The catalog is now paged through and returned in full. Rows come back sorted by id as a result.
• Fixed owid_get_catalog() failing after OWID removed the isIndexable column from the catalog. Logical and date columns are now only parsed when they are actually present, so future schema changes no longer break the function.
• Guarded the owid_search() example against an unreachable API, since owid_get_catalog() returns NULL in that case.
• Tests now use mocked httr2 responses instead of live API calls. The few remaining tests against the real API check that the OWID schema still matches what the package expects and are skipped on CRAN.

owidapi 0.1.1

• Encapsulated request logic in internal perform_request() function.

owidapi 0.1.0
