Revert "Make serpapi base url configurable via env (#4402)" (#4750)
This reverts commit 5111bec540.

This PR introduced a bug in the async API (the `url` param isn't bound);
it also didn't update the synchronous API correctly, which makes it
error-prone (the behavior of the async and sync endpoints would be
different)

# SerpAPI
This page covers how to use the SerpAPI search APIs within LangChain.
It is broken into two parts: installation and setup, and then references to the specific SerpAPI wrapper.
## Installation and Setup
- Install requirements with `pip install google-search-results`
- Get a SerpAPI api key and either set it as an environment variable (`SERPAPI_API_KEY`)
## Wrappers
### Utility
There exists a SerpAPI utility which wraps this API. To import this utility:
```python
from langchain.utilities import SerpAPIWrapper
```
For a more detailed walkthrough of this wrapper, see [this notebook](../modules/agents/tools/examples/serpapi.ipynb).
### Tool
You can also easily load this wrapper as a Tool (to use with an Agent).
You can do this with:
```python
from langchain.agents import load_tools
tools = load_tools(["serpapi"])
```
For more information on this, see [this page](../modules/agents/tools/getting_started.md)
