Set local mirror instead of mirror list in /etc/apt/sources.list #636

Description

@vjr

Currently an installation of elementary 7 horus daily results in /etc/apt/source.list having mirrorlists instead of the local archive.

This results in a poor experience during package updates/installs due to many of the mirrors being slow or out of order.

I'm located in India but I suspect these issues are relevant in many places across the globe.

Updating the build system to specify local mirrors (if possible) instead would greatly improve the experience because the requirements/guidelines for being an official country mirror from Canonical are stricter as noted here: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Mirrors
