Add voting data for 2021 and 2022 #12

The primary Kaggle data set we use for the voting scores only went up to 2019.

Need to scrape the Eurovision website for the 2021 and 2022 results.

This data goes up to 2021, but only considers votes from countries who also performed. However, they do provide their code, so we can base our scraping on this.

This is scraped from wikipedia (e.g. 2022 results). I'm not sure if there is a better way to do this, i.e. from the official Eurovision site.

I think the page has been reformatted so previous methods to scrape don't work
