Would be good if someone could have a look. Once this is merged, anyone can run this on a server using `./dub-registry --mirror https://code.dlang.org/` and then forward incoming requests using a reverse proxy to http://127.0.0.1:8005.

To be clear: Would the argument need to be specified for every launch, or is this a one-time call to set it up for future mirroring?
Is the mirrored data stored in a permanent location?


In the current form, this will enable manual fallback in the form of users specifying --registry=https://some.code.dlang.mirror on the DUB command line. In the future we can then keep a list of official mirrors as DNS entries (maybe of the form mirror1.dub.pm) and let DUB use those automatically.

Cool, I'll see about setting one up when a new release of dub-registry with that is out.
