Summary [GTK][JHBuild] Fetch libvpx from a release tarball instead of git

I don't know what is the issue with the libvpx repository, but when using the JHBUILD_MIRROR feature <https://trac.webkit.org/changeset/166061> it sometimes takes ages to run the fetch operation or it even fails with a network timeout. And, I see no reason to use the git repository. Using a release tarball should be better in any case and will lower the disk and network needs required for building WebKitGTK.

Thanks for the review. I'm landing it with a minor diff to use the variable version on the filename. - <branch repo="downloads.webmproject.org" - module="libvpx-1.6.0.tar.bz2" version="1.6.0" + <branch version="1.6.0" + module="libvpx-${version}.tar.bz2" + repo="downloads.webmproject.org"
