Download and add TESS light curves

[astrofoley]

Is your proposal related to a problem?

Michael Fausnaugh has produced an automatic script to process TESS light curves. Since the data release is now ~7 days after it is obtained, it can be particularly useful.

He has provided a website https://tess.mit.edu/public/tesstransients/ and an API (e.g., wget https://tess.mit.edu/public/tesstransients/light_curves/lc_2022sfe_cleaned ) to grab the data.

Describe the solution you'd like

I think we just need a cron to hit the API. They keep a log of transients observed by TESS (https://tess.mit.edu/public/tesstransients/lc_bulk/count_transients.txt) which might be useful to limit requests.

Describe alternatives you've considered

Armin, Ryan, and Qinan have their own pipeline. I don't think it is automatic and there is no API. It might be worth asking them if they have a solution though.
