dev/archive/mirroring: Require HTTP
Someday, an HTTP redirector service may be introduced instead of prokit
hardcoding a selected mirror into opkg.conf. (Another option is to wrap
`opkg update` with a script that fetches the latest mirror lists (with
soft fail) and updates the opkg configuration file(s) with a randomly
selected mirror.)
