[pacman-dev] [PATCH] etc: remove Arch-specific mirrorlist from repo

We shouldn't have the stock config be Arch specific for a few reasons:

* Although it is our package, others should be able to use it
* Keeping the mirrorlist coupled to the pacman package makes it hard to push
  updates to users without releasing a new copy of the pacman source

In all our other removals of things before 3.1.0, I probably should have done
this too. I'm debating whether to queue this up for 3.1.1 or 3.2.0. I'd
appreciate any input you guys have on this.

This is the last thing in the code that is still tied tightly to Arch. I think
a seperate 'core/mirrorlist' package would make a lot more sense here, or at
least bundle it with filesystem or something. However, being its own package
would be ideal becuase it could be version bumped at any time.
