Now that the related links recommender
is no longer running, suggested_ordered_related_items will be growing
increasingly stale.

I'm not sure whether publishing-api is even clever enough to keep
suggested_ordered_related_items links somewhat up to date (e.g. if one
is withdrawn, unpublished, or if a slug is changed) - it doesn't look
like it from a cursory glance at the code.

Note that there are around 164,000 published editions with
suggested_ordered_related_items and only around 2,500 published editions
with ordered_related_items, so this will have the effect of removing the
related links sidebar from the majority of pages on GOV.UK (around
161,000 of them).
