1. Simplify Services.worldwide_api method …

   There is already a mechanism available for overriding the URI for specific
   services, so there is no need to have some special code to do this. Service
   URI's are automatically looked up via `Plek` and they can be overridden using
   environment variables of the form: `PLEK_SERVICE_<service-name>_URI` (see [1]).
   
   In this case, we can set the `PLEK_SERVICE_WHITEHALL_ADMIN_URI` environment
   variable to "https://www.gov.uk" if we want to use the production website to
   supply the data for the Worldwide API.
   
   I've updated both the `developing-without-vm` and `developing-using-vm`
   documentation to explain how to cope with this change.
   
   I have also updated the `common-errors` documentation to reflect the error that
   occurs if the Worldwide API is not pointing at an appropriate URI.
