Feature/262-add-rdata-dep

To resolve #262.

ah shoot, the last rdata available on Python 3.8 was 0.9, which doesn't have the same rdata.read_rds() function. The rdata.read_rds() function is just a convenience wrapper around the steps required in the older version, which is ⏬

parsed = rdata.parser.parse_file(PATH_TO_FILE)
rdata.conversion.convert(parsed)

Unfortunately I needed to add a datatype conversion to use fsspec with rdata in the 3.8-compatible version of the package.

(ignore connect error, that is fixed on main!)

Ah, looks like that is a success for the local boards, I can pick up the changes for the last boards since I have credentials?

Yeah that would be good! It's hard to debug this one without being able to run all the tests 🙈
