 doc: Introduce release_version_urls and release_urls

 To support updating MacPorts base via HTTP and avoiding the rsync
 download (which we currently do not distribute over multiple mirrors
 automatically), introduce two new multi-value configuration options
 release_version_urls and release_urls, where the former is a list of URLs
 to check for the current MacPorts release version, and the latter is
 a list of template URLs where to download the source code for a given
 MacPorts version.
