[GNC] Finance::Quote Yahoo JSON Module Issues

Sometime in the last 24 hours Yahoo turned off the faucet for the REST 
API that Finance::Quote::YahooJSON was using for getting quote and 
exchange data.

A query such as:

curl 'https://query1.finance.yahoo.com/v7/finance/quote?symbols=F'

Will return:

{"finance":{"result":null,"error":{"code":"Unauthorized","description":"Invalid 
Cookie"}}}

A Finance::Quote issue, 
https://github.com/finance-quote/finance-quote/issues/264, has already 
been created. Please don't open new ones or submit bug reports to Source 
Forge or rt.cpan.org.

While there may be some other ways to retrieve and parse data from 
Yahoo, it may be sometime before a fix for F::Q is developed, tested, 
and published.

Thank you.
