Query Limits on Multiple Values #12

In get_schedule_a, the OpenFEC API has a maximum of 5 committees to search for at one time. Searching for that many itemized contributions in one line may be an edge case that I don't want to support. It may be better for work requiring more than 5 committees to break that up as part of it.

Going over the max committees returns a useful error for now. Still need to investigate other parameter maximums.
