Could use some tests

Add support for the other MWS report types

ReportType enumeration

As can be seen in the link above, MWS provides numerous reports, although some won't be of value to this project, such as _GET_XML_ALL_ORDERS_DATA_BY_ORDER_DATE_ , which is data that we're already receiving through a different report type. The only ones currently included are:

_GET_FLAT_FILE_ALL_ORDERS_DATA_BY_ORDER_DATE_
_GET_FBA_FULFILLMENT_CUSTOMER_RETURNS_DATA_

This issue will be kept open to track report types until all the useful ones are added.

Smarter throttling protection

To avoid being rate limited, we currently use a 60 second delay after requesting a report. Reports are slow to process but this could stand to be lower. Additionally, MWS provides quota info in the response headers that can be used to provide a more efficient process.

Action Required: Fix Renovate Configuration

There is an error with this repository's Renovate configuration that needs to be fixed. As a precaution, Renovate will stop PRs until it is resolved.

Error type: Cannot find preset's package (github>datadotworld/renovate-config)

Perform incremental updates

Currently, each time update_reports.py runs, it pulls data for the entire required time period. A better approach would be to pull the current data from data.world, use the LAST BOT RUN update marker to only pull the most recent data from MWS, and then merge the two and push it all to data.world.

One gotcha to be aware of is that order IDs aren't unique, making it difficult to discern if an updated order is a duplicate or an update to a previously existing order. Hence, why we pull the full order set each time.
