Adding a new Weather API

1. Create a configuration class inside config directory.
2. Create a new weather model class inside model directory which implements CsvConvertible.
3. Extend WeatherScraperImpl to create a new class for the API.
4. Define the class constructor with methods buildQueryURL and decodeData.
