refactor: use ftpmirror.gnu.org for gnu packages (#26)

Browse source 
https://ftp.gnu.org is very, *very* slow. From the [GNU downloads page](https://www.gnu.org/prep/ftp.en.html):

> [...]please try to use one of the many mirrors of our site listed below: the mirrors will give you faster response. [...] You can use the generic URLs https://ftpmirror.gnu.org and http://ftpmirror.gnu.org to automatically choose a nearby and up-to-date mirror.

Indeed, in my experience the mirrors are much faster. I don't see a reason we shouldn't default to them personally, so I've changed the default here.
