LGBCE Helper: Duplicated headers in ECO CSV #2323

Description

@chris48s

Not 100% sure if this is one we address in EE or https://github.com/DemocracyClub/eco-parser/
I suspect here, but need to look into it a bit more first

but the problem is: the ECO schedule will usually contain headers. For example if I run

eco_parser "https://www.legislation.gov.uk/uksi/2024/1176/schedule/1/made/data.xml"

that will output

Name of division,Number of councillors
Alvechurch,1
Beacon,1
Bedwardine,1
...

with a header row. At the moment, those headers "Name of division", "Number of councillors" get inserted into the ECO CSV as if they were a division. We should fix this.
