Error for `get_pvgis_tmy` with `outputformat='csv'` 
A recent `remote-data` CI run (https://github.com/pvlib/pvlib-python/actions/runs/12470840782/job/34806707387?pr=2258#step:6:78) experienced a test failure:

Seems like PVGIS changed the format of their CSV TMY output.

Note that the default case in `get_pvgis_tmy` (`outputformat='json'`) works without issue, so this issue probably does not affect many users.  

Side note: why do we support all these formats?  Seems like we could simplify that module a lot by choosing whichever one we like best and deprecating the `outputformat` parameter.
