Change `depmap_crispr()` to pull from combined dataset rather than Achilles only #76

The main data releases from 21Q2 onwards switched from using the Achilles tables to the CRISPR ones, which combined the Broad and Sanger datasets.

This is apparent from looking at the downloads page and selecting older releases versus new ones.

Either adding parameters to distinguish between the Achilles and CRISPR files or making explicit functions to retrieve each may reduce confusion.

Going forward, we will only use the combined datasets. This is reflected in the most recent 22Q1 data release.
