Request for offset in endpoints

See original GitHub issue

Hi @jakewmeyer,

Would it be possible to add an offset option in the request that can be used for pagination? Currently limit is an option but no offset can be given with the request. This way the impact of the launches query can be optimised in performance and load on both client and server side.

For example:

Return the 3rd set with as size of 5 results of all launches: https://api.spacexdata.com/v3/launches?offset=2&limit=5
Return the first set with as size of 5 results of all launches: https://api.spacexdata.com/v3/launches?offset=0&limit=5 https://api.spacexdata.com/v3/launches?limit=5

Cheers! Jeroen
