The official vim mirrors only carries major versions and individual
patches, no up-to-date releases. This patch changes the source uri to
the tagged github releases instead of downloading all 40+ (so far)
patches individually.
I'm not very happy about changing to a third-party source, but IMO it
beats keeping track of the frequent patches. WDYT?
