fetchurl: don't prefer hashed mirrors by default 

Right now, when building any FOD that uses `fetchurl` (which is the
majority of ours), `tarballs.nixos.org` will always be contacted
before the actual URL. Given that `tarballs.nixos.org` mainly hosts
the bootstrap tools, which already explicitly set it as the host to pull
from, it doesn't make much sense to force every other `fetchurl`
invocation to first reach out to `tarballs.nixos.org`.
