Add a warning for URLs that are too long #93

Closed flaneuse closed 1 year ago

flaneuse commented 1 year ago

When someone is trying to query A LOT of lineages with descendants (or locations, etc.), they can quickly get above the URL length limit. Add a warning to the generic getGenomicData() or getGenomicResponse() to warn or error if a user specifies a URL > maybe 2,000 characters?
