Update to how symbols are returned in the GET Portfolio v2 endpoint

When making a request to the GET Portfolio v2 endpoint, and an options position is returned, a suffix of -OPTION is returned at the end of the symbol. For example: TQQQ260116C00055500-OPTION.
The suffix will be removed to keep the symbols OSI compliant and allow symbol reuse.
