Refactor contest date handling in app.py and grab_contest_data.py for improved consistency

- Removed the contest_date_map from the grab_contest_names function, simplifying the return values and enhancing data handling.
- Updated the date selection logic in app.py to directly utilize the 'Date' column from curr_info, ensuring a consistent format for date representation.
- Adjusted the grab_contest_data function to accept the formatted date directly, streamlining the data retrieval process.
- These changes contribute to ongoing efforts to enhance data integrity and improve user experience within the application.
