[bug#67128] Use CDN instead of mirrors for Apache httpd

Hello fellow guixers.

I've found that I cannot build httpd package because of download issues.

downloading from 
http://www.eu.apache.org/dist/httpd/httpd-2.4.58.tar.bz2 ...

sha256 hash mismatch for 
/gnu/store/sil2xmw01qmyygdbhvrsvyvmaviha2dy-httpd-2.4.58.tar.bz2:
   expected hash: 1id45r2ccgkbjm9i998997ch32lvicpyynyx8x6aa4420wmdf5ps
   actual hash:   0mdqa9w1p6cmli6976v4wi0sw9r4p5prkj7lzfd1877wk11c9c73

On the other hand, Apache web site states clearly that it doesn't use 
mirror system anymore:
"As of the third quarter of 2021, the ASF stopped using its download 
mirror system. It is now using a global content distribution network 
(CDN)."
https://www.apache.org/mirrors.html

So I've made a patch that disables Apache mirrors for httpd@2.4.58 and 
httpd/pinned@2.4.52 packages.

This looks to duplicate #63068, which instead fixes the list of
mirrors for all packages. Though, as noted in that thread, the linked
documentation lists downloads.apache.org rather than dlcdn.apache.org

Previous patch was wrong. Here's better one.
httpd-2.4.58 is Ok. The problem is httpd-2.4.52 could not be downloaded 
from Apache mirrors, only from Apache archive site.
