New CDN via fastly.com

[Fernando Frediani]

Hello

Checking the FQDN it doesn't seem to have IPv6 enabled.

~# host sources.cdn.openwrt.org
sources.cdn.openwrt.org is an alias for j.sni.global.fastly.net.
j.sni.global.fastly.net has address 151.101.94.132

As far as I know Fastly has IPv6 support, but different from Cloudflare 
for example it is not mandatory and may need to be enabled.
