Allow for finer control over which mirror is selected

Currently we hardcode the order in which we try the mirrors as: the mirrors from the cabal config file in order, and then the mirrors from the TUF mirrors list, in order.

Should use a service like http://freegeoip.net/json/ ; the client asks about their own ip address to get a broad region, and then orders mirrors in that region above others.
