fix chess examples by using dlt rest client

[mattseddon]

Description

This PR fixes the errors in the chess examples from docs/examples.

Here is a recent CI failure: https://github.com/dlt-hub/dlt/actions/runs/13662290829/job/38196000155

Additional Context

I have been poking around the repository and looking at bugs. I noticed that these examples are currently failing in the CI. The underlying issue is that the API is returning 404s for some of the requests made. If there is a better way to fix the examples then please LMK. I could not find an obvious way to add validation (i.e. if a player does not exist ignore them) in the docs.

@sh-rp I'd assume that the examples tests are not running because they're all marked with the following:

@skipifgithubfork
@pytest.mark.forked

Unless something has changed?

Also, it looks like this change only addresses a transient issue with the chess.com API (the pipeline seems to be green again).

I think the reason that the change worked was that the RESTClient instantiates a new Client with raise_for_status=False. I tested by running the data into duckdb. When the API was misbehaving I got data like this:
