Added --mirror-locally option to repo add/edit and WebUI for specifying that a cobbler
repo object is to be used directly, rather than mirrored into /var/www/cobbler by reposync/rsync. This can be usable when network connectivity outside is certain, and there are no performance or bandwidth needs on a local mirror. This supports http:// and ftp:// only, rsync:// is not natively understood by yum.
