[PATCH] Update FTP/HTTP mirrors.



Hi,

This patch updates the list of FTP/HTTP mirrors - most them are
either down or no longer contain the zsh sources. The following
mirrors are out of date:

    - Denmark
    - France
    - Hungary

I'm not sure if we should contact the old FTP mirrors or just
remove them. I guess most downloads happen over Sourceforge these
days.

We should also update http://www.zsh.org/ which contains the same
dead links. The following files need to be regenerated for
http://zsh.sourceforge.net/ (I'm not sure how to do that):

    - Doc/Release/Introduction.html
    - Doc/Release/zsh_2.html

    - FAQ/META.html
    - FAQ/zshfaq01.html
    - FAQ/zshfaq.yo

Btw. do we really need the FTP mirrors in two places: Etc/FAQ.yo
and Doc/Zsh/metafaq.yo?

Regards,
Simon

 For example,

 can be completed without reference to the tt(urls) style.
