Make json the default on the server

[Jeremy-Prior]

The current EMC STAC API root endpoint is https://csw-testing.emc.kartoza.com/, but accessing this returns an html page which isn't readable in the STAC Browser QGIS plugin.

Appending ?f=json to the endpoint to make it https://csw-testing.emc.kartoza.com/?f=json will return a JSON response that the plugin can work with.

I tried this today and althrough appending the json kv pair results in a json response, the stac plugin does not see it as valid and it does not return any collections nor search results

@gubuntu it seems that we had to re-create pycsw pod for this to load correctly, these are the current results i'm getting, waiting for further notes

Note: for the search, keep the sort panel at the bottom-right corner of the stac plugin empty

it seems not to return collections (both when sorting by collection and the raw collections retrieval ), this needs further investigation
