fetchurl: Add hook for rewriting/filtering URLs

Browse source 
This allows on-the-fly rewriting of URLs before they are passed from
fetchurl (or fetchurlBoot) to curl.

The intended use is to allow inserting company-internal mirrors, or
working around company firewalls and similar network restrictions,
without having to extensively patch across all of nixpkgs. Instead,
users can pass a function in their nixpkgs that performs the necessary
URL rewrites.
