Recently Arch Linux shed the www portion of its site. The links still work,
but it's a 301 redirection to archlinux.org. Changed all the URL's still pointing
to www.archlinux.org to avoid the unnecessary redirection, since on browsers the 301
is usually saved and respected, but command line tools line wget or python might not
save this and always go through the redirect.
The safety mechanism prevents the installation-code under `if __name__` to run when importing to check for the `_prep_function`.
when the import for `_prep_function` check is executed it imports with a bogus `__name__` override. This is to protect anything under if `__name__` from running just to be able to import and run `_prep_function()`.
After that is done and the actual installation begins, it imports with a proper `__name__`,
The namespace is `filename` minus the `.extension` *(.py)*, normally imports of modules with dashes (`-`) in the name is prohibited, but archintall's import mechanism supports this as it's a string-import via `importlib`.
So modified to `if __name__ == 'kde-wayland'` and that worked great : )
If we enable systemd-networkd and do not enable systemd-resolved, the installed system
is left on a state where it has networking, but can resolve any hostnames. It is required
to have systemd-resolved enabled if any .network file has a DNS entry or is using DHCP=yes.

Changed README.md to not use sudo pip anymore and point users to use pacman instead.
We go into more detail on the docs. Changed binary.rst to point to the official repositories
too. Changed python.rst to point to using the official repositories for the installation of
both the archinstall script or for just installing the library (archinstall depends on python-archinstall).
Since it's a installation specific mount, we need to re-create genfstab. Also corrected genfstab flags as well as added an option to override the >> (append) operator to become a write-over operator.
It's a 0.025 second sleep waiting for the partition to pop up in partprobe.
Also added a grace period of 10 seconds for that to occur. Otherwise we'll throw an exception since something most likely broke down. (Note here: Older drives, say 6200 RPM spin disks, might take a few seconds to come online. Have no such hardware to test with, but worth testing)
