github archives in the recipes

This c..... is spreading again.

Don't use github archives, because they are regenerated from time to time with different
checksums.

If someone is looking for simple janitor tasks, then please pick some of these
and convert them to either use the developer uploaded release tarballs (if available)
or just change them to use git fetcher instead.

Also notice that some of these are using the often conflicting v${PV} filename
without setting downloadfilename to something more sane.

I *really* need to get around to merging
https://github.com/rossburton/meta-ross/blob/master/classes/insanitier.bbclass#L93
into oe-core.  I'l try and do that today.
