[PATCH cygport] mirrors: update mirror_debian

[Yasuhiro KIMURA]

According to DebianGeoMirror page of Debian
Wiki (https://wiki.debian.org/DebianGeoMirror), current reccomended
Debian mirror archive URL with GeoMirror capability is
"http://deb.debian.org/". So update mirror_debian to use it.

Great - ftp.debian.org no longer responds - and all other http mirror services
are deprecated and redirect to deb.debian.org.

NO - http://www.debian.org/mirror/list is the authoritative page (it says so);
whereas https://wiki.debian.org/DebianGeoMirror is a discussion page.

Great - ftp.debian.org no longer responds and deb.debian.org is canonical.

OK. Then should I update patch and submit it again?
