    INSTALL: Update patch file links.

    The ftp.idsoftware.com server died several months back. Some context:
    <https://www.doomworld.com/forum/topic/96999-rip-ftpidsoftwarecom/>

    Instead, point at the mirrors found in the idgames repository, using
    the gamers.org version since this is the canonical copy everything else
    mirrors from. Unfortunately it's not possible to point at the Doomworld
    idgames interface since the patches don't appear in the database there.
