 dependencies.tcl: attempt to mitigate 503 errors

 Ensure that archivefetch is not attempted at all in install_dep_source,
 since we only get there if it already failed. This should prevent
 failure from archivefetch getting a 503 for a signature again.

 This is at best a poor and partial workaround, since archivefetch
 failing for ports that have an archive available in the first place
 means that those ports are unnecessarily built from source, and
 furthermore, fetching the distfiles might fail the same way.
