Make ZYPP_MULTICURL=0 the default #612

Description

@bmwiedemann

We found in past benchmarks that ZYPP_MULTICURL=1 logic is always slower than ZYPP_MULTICURL=0 downloads, because TCP connections need a while to reach their maximum speed and because latency is a major factor when downloading in small chunks.

We should make ZYPP_MULTICURL=0 the default.

For that, we need to ensure, we have good automatic fallbacks, so that users don't get to see 404 errors, connection timeouts and such when we can avoid it.

Fallback could go to download.o.o, cdn.o.o or downloadcontentcdn.o.o - probably an URL provided by MirrorCache.
