Win32 curl download link

[brad-anderson]

@WalterBright This pull request relies on curl-7.24.0-dmd-win32.zip being uploaded to ftp://ftp.digitalmars.com/ before it should be merged.

Is there a good reason to use FTP for downloads these days? HTTP should generally cause less problems with proxies, etc.

[WalterBright]

It's downloading from github now.

@WalterBright If you want to upload curl-7.24.0-dmd-win32.zip to GitHub instead of Digital Mars ftp I'd happily change all of the links to point at Github. I can already change the dmd.zip in the installer to point to the Github download as it is done here on the download page.

See also: my comment on the commit that adds curl to the windows build. I put the curl.lib file from this zip in place and it still fails to pass the windows phobos tests. I don't have the time to dig into what's going wrong.

It's on github now.

Though Brad says it doesn't pass the Phobos tests.

@WalterBright: good to go?

This link is fine to merge, I'd say. Phobos is still pending a solution though (and the installer pull, while it would work fine, is useless without the phobos change).
