BEA Updated their Regional API

[geoffrey-eisenbarth]

Looks like BEA has finally combined their RegionalIncome and RegionalProduct tables into a single Regional API (see: https://apps.bea.gov/regional/docs/RegionalApi.cfm for more details).

I only use pyBEA for a small portion of my current project, but am quite familiar with the BEA Regional APIs, and might have some spare time soon if you're interested in some help. Any help narrowing down where in the pyBEA code these fixes would occur would be helpful.

Thanks!

Not sure where else needs fixing, but updating the hardcoded list of valid datasets in the pybea.py script, function get_data() would be one place to start based on an error I just got. The list is named valid_dataset_names.
