maint: adjust the URL that will appear in the generated announcement

* cfg.mk (url_dir_list): Use this http://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/$(PACKAGE)
for the first link listed in the generated announcement.
announce-gen now provides the faster mirror link automatically.
Remove now-unnecessary release-related URLs.
