[Buildroot] [PATCH] infra/perl: switch to using a reliable mirror

[Yann E. MORIN]

The mirror we currently use is not a mirror, it's the main archive.

It has a few shortcomings:
  - it might not contain all the versions of the modules we use,
  - it can be unavailable at times (like now, for example)

Switch to using a realmirror, that:
  - does a round-robin on the actual mirror, so availability is better
  - contains all versions of all modules (yes, mojolicious is there!)

As a consequence, switch mojolicious to use our standard mirror,
