Fix some broken links in Cygwin FAQ
GNU no longer encourages the use of documentation mirrors, to avoid referring to obsolete documentation. Also www.fsf.org/manual/ is just a redirect to www.gnu.org/manual/ Links to using-utils.html #fragments are no longer correct as each utility is now a separate page, since 646745cb. indiana.edu seems to have moved XLiveCD information, without a redirect. Linking to clean_setup.pl on cygwin.com doesn't work, as direct downloads aren't allowed, so instead state where it can be found on a mirror. Signed-off-by: Jon Turney <jon.turney@dronecode.org.uk>
