Bug#907704: choose-mirror: default to deb.debian.org

Severity: wishlist
X-Debbugs-Cc: tfh...@debian.org
I think it's time for choose-mirror to stop asking by default. AFAIK
deb.debian.org works well enough now that we don't need users to
manually select a mirror close to them.
PoC patch, completely untested:
