Gather Winston data in chunks rather than all at once #18

Anecdotally, Winston (source='AVO') takes forever to grab chunks of data longer than ~1 hour in duration. For example, the data collection command in example_regional.py in the RTM repo, which requests 220 minutes of data, is really slow.

We might be able to alleviate this by quietly breaking the data request into smaller chunks that Winston can more easily handle, and then merging those chunks to create the final returned Stream.

AVO Winston has super annoying timeout issues on slower connections.

We should make Winston optional for gather_waveforms_bulk()
