Fix: options.expirations returns an empty DataFrame when filtering columns

Closes #23

Summary

options.expirations(..., columns=["expirations"]) returned an empty DataFrame,
and the INTERNAL output format crashed on partial API responses. Both stem from
the same trigger: the columns parameter is applied server-side, so requesting
columns=["expirations"] makes the API respond with only {"s": "ok", "expirations": [...]}
— without the updated field the SDK assumed was always present.

This PR fixes both failure modes and adds regression tests.

Problem

from marketdata import MarketDataClient

df = MarketDataClient(token="...").options.expirations(
    symbol="AAPL", columns=["expirations"]
)
print(df)
# Empty DataFrame
# Columns: []
# Index: [2025-12-05, 2025-12-12, ...]

Two distinct bugs:

1. Empty DataFrame (primary). The resource always forced
   index_columns=["expirations"]. When expirations is the only column returned,
   the pandas handler promotes it to the index via set_index, leaving the
   DataFrame with zero data columns — so it looks empty even though the data is
   there (in the index).

2. INTERNAL crash on partial responses (secondary). OptionsExpirations
   required the updated field. A response missing it (e.g. a filtered/partial
   response) raised TypeError, which @handle_exceptions turned into a
   MarketDataClientErrorResult.

Changes

resources/options/expirations.py — primary fix

Stop forcing expirations into the index when the user explicitly filters columns.
The default behavior (no columns filter → expirations as index) is unchanged.

index_columns = [] if user_universal_params.columns else ["expirations"]
return handler(data, output_model, user_universal_params).get_result(
    index_columns=index_columns
)

output_types/options_expirations.py — secondary fix

Make updated optional and skip conversion when it is absent.

updated: datetime.datetime | None = None

def __post_init__(self):
    if self.updated is not None:
        self.updated = format_timestamp(self.updated)
    ...

output_handlers/base.py — required follow-on fix

Changing updated to the PEP 604 union datetime | None broke date-column
detection: _type_includes only recognized typing.Union, but X | None has
origin types.UnionType. Without this, updated stopped being converted to a
datetime and broke two pre-existing DataFrame tests. Now both union forms are
handled.

if origin is Union or origin is types.UnionType:
    ...

Testing

Added 4 tests in src/tests/test_options_expirations.py:

• test_options_expirations_optional_updated — dataclass accepts updated=None.
• test_get_options_expirations_columns_filter_dataframe_pandas — filtered DataFrame
  is not empty; compared against a full expected DataFrame via assert_frame_equal.
• test_get_options_expirations_columns_filter_dataframe_polars — regression guard
  (polars never had the bug).
• test_get_options_expirations_partial_response_internal — INTERNAL parses a
  response missing updated, leaving it None.

Developed with a TDD red → green cycle.
