Cannot load TREC dataset: ConnectionError 
 ## Problem
I cannot load "trec" dataset, it results with ConnectionError as shown below. I've tried on both Google Colab and locally. 
* `requests.head('http://cogcomp.org/Data/QA/QC/train_5500.label')` returns <Response [302]>. 
* `requests.head('http://cogcomp.org/Data/QA/QC/train_5500.label', allow_redirects=True)` raises `requests.exceptions.TooManyRedirects: Exceeded 30 redirects.`
* Opening `http://cogcomp.org/Data/QA/QC/train_5500.label' in a browser works, but opens a different address
* Increasing max_redirects to 100 doesn't help

Also, while debugging I've seen that requesting 'https://storage.googleapis.com/huggingface-nlp/cache/datasets/trec/default/1.1.0/dataset_info.json' returns <Response [404]> before, but it doesn't raise any errors. Not sure if that's relevant.

* datasets.__version__ == '1.1.2'
* requests.__version__ == '2.24.0'
