Gaia: Fix the astroquery method launch_job to retrieve the Table from the job when a json format is used

[cosmoJFH]

If the Table is extracted from the job returned after the execution of the function launch_job, the following exception is thrown

>>> from astroquery.gaia import Gaia

>>> r=Gaia.launch_job("select top 10 * from gaiadr3.gaia_source order by source_id", output_format="json",dump_to_file=False)

Traceback (most recent call last):
