Review and sample for OSDF based data fetch

Wanted to share a review on the new large documents fetching system that GWOSC has implemented to replace the CERN VMFS with OSDF.

I used Pelican based script to fetch the entire length of O3a run’s strain data and in comparison to the previous nds server, this was a much more faster and smoother process. I have attached a sample script.

Would definitely recommend using it for longer time segment sequences fetching and also much more elegant at handling resume compared to nds upon obstruction in fetching.
@jonah, thank you for referring me to this update.
