Fix broken link in documentation

The previous target of this link is no longer available.

I found that there is no longer an authoritative web page that provides a list of standard GATT service UUIDs, equivalent to the previous target of that link:

https://web.archive.org/web/20160305021019/https://developer.bluetooth.org/gatt/services/Pages/ServicesHome.aspx

The Bluetooth Special Interest Group has since moved this information into the "Assigned Numbers" pdf, so I replaced the
broken link with a link to the download page for that document and noted its location in that document.

## Services, characteristics, and UUIDs

A Bluetooth® Low Energy peripheral will provide **services**, which in turn provide **characteristics**. You can define your own services, or use [standard services](https://developer.bluetooth.org/gatt/services/Pages/ServicesHome.aspx).
A Bluetooth® Low Energy peripheral will provide **services**, which in turn provide **characteristics**. You can define your own services, or use standard services (see section 3.4 in the [Assigned Numbers document](https://www.bluetooth.com/specifications/assigned-numbers/)).

Services are identified by unique numbers known as UUIDs. You know about UUIDs from other contexts. Standard services have a 16-bit UUID and custom services have a 128-bit UUID. The ability to define services and characteristics depends on the radio you're using and its firmware.
