Currently, the runtime tests will use the sources.buildroot.org backup
mirror, which is the default setup.
However, in some cases we do not want to use the backup site, because we
want to ensure that the download actually works.
This is the case for vendored packages, like cargo or golang packages,
for whbich we want to check that gthe download still works when we
update the rust or go versions, or when our download helpers change.
So, disable the use of the backup site in all runtime tests, and drop
the no-longer needed special cases.

Back in 2013, a github download helper has been introduced to cope with
changes in github download-URL's [1][2].
Since then a testing infrastructure has been introduced in Buildroot
but no tests has been added to check if the github download helper is
still working.
It was reported recently [3] that the github helper doesn't work anymore
using tags. Buildroot is not the only project having the issue, see
Github feedback discussions [4].
Add tests for direct archive download (archives uploaded by maintainers),
download from a git tag and git hash using the github helper.
Make sure that Buildroot doesn't use BR2_BACKUP_SITE
(http://sources.buildroot.net).
