[ICAT] Fix endpoint issue

[Jay Rainey]

Although the end-point is set in Facilities.xml it is in fact not used in ICat4Catalog or other catalogs. As it is not used, the gSoap generated files see the related soap_endpoint as being empty, and use the endpoint the files were generated against. As such, we want to set this end-point accordingly.

To do this we need to:

1. Update catalogLogin to contain a list of all available facilities.

2. Update catalogLogin to obtain the soap-endpoint based on the facility selected, and then pass it to the related catalog login method.

3. Update all catalogs (ICat4Catalog & ICat3Catalog) to set the end-point for the session in the login method, and then use the session class to "get" the end-point & use it throughout.

To test

1. Open Mantid and enable debugging in the console.
2. Click Catalog -> Login. There should now be a third option, which is a list of all available facilities. Select ISIS. Note: You may select another facility, but an error will be thrown as these facilities do not currently have catalog information in Facilities.xml.
3. You should now see a debug message that shows you the soap end-point that you are currently using for the catalog.
4. Change soapendpoint in Facilities.xml to: https://icatdev.isis.cclrc.ac.uk/ICATService/ICAT
5. Log into the catalog again to verify that the end-point has changed.
6. Perform searches and use ICAT to ensure no functionality is broken.

Select default facility. Refs #8581.
