Update CORS for Oxford Dictionary API (#811)

https://forum.oxforddictionaries.com/api/discussion/18/error-message-no-access-control-allow-origin-or-i-can-t-get-my-client-side-request-to-work
`
Unfortunately, we are unable to support client-side application requests (this includes JavaScript, JScript, VBScript, Java applets, ActionScript, etc.).

> This is because our API does not currently support CORS requests due to the potential implications for the security of our server. 
> Instead, we suggest you to make the query reach your server side application, and then send the API request from the server rather than from the client.
