Structure.from_pdbid broken: MMTF download deprecated

[dominiquesydow]

The MMTF format is no longer supported by the RCSB and replaced by the BCIF format.
https://www.rcsb.org/news/feature/65a1af31c76ca3abcc925d0c

Hence, also the mmtf package, which is a Python implementation of the MMTF API, is not in use any more:

opencadd/opencadd/structure/core.py

Line 22 in c76e87c

return cls(mmtf.fetch(pdbid))

As the corresponding function in opencadd‘s Structure object mimics mdanalysis‘ Universe object, I think we also have to check in there.

We could try this:
