Remove libdownload support and fix libfetch one.

Aaron said to consider libdownload a dead project so libdownload support was removed to more easily fix libfetch one (otherwise many ifdef needed).

There was no direct replacement for ferror to detect an error while downloading. So instead, I added a check at the end to see if the file was fully downloaded, which is just a small chunk of code taken from here: http://cvsweb.netbsd.org/bsdweb.cgi/pkgsrc/net/libfetch/files/fetch.c?only_w...

Note that this commit means libdownload is no longer supported. Arch has a libfetch package in testing that works perfectly with pacman built from GIT, so please install that if you want to continue to be able to compile. :)

Yeah, libdownload is no more. It was just a port of libfetch anyway.
