If configure detects that it's being run on a source tree which
is missing git modules, it prints an error messages suggesting
that the user downloads a correct source archive from the project
website. However https://www.qemu.org/download/ is a link to a
page with multiple tabs, with the default being the one telling
users how to get binaries from their distro. Clarify the URL
we print to include the #source anchor, so that the browser will
go directly to the source-tarball instructions.
