No default speedtestserver if there is no config file #316

For all configs, there always should be some default values if OLX cannot find the config file for some reason. This doesn't seem to be the case for cfg/speedtestservers.txt.

It should use the default URL if the file is not available and just read that file otherwise.

There are also no default masterservers hardcoded, neither download servers are. These things change so often, that it makes no sense to hardcode anything in this way. I generally am against hardcoding any kind of URLs, even though they are just fallback. It's not that big deal to eventually download the necessary config file if you miss it.

What URL would you propose as default one?

I would take some which will be really sure be available even in many years (LXA, SourceForge, www.az2000.de).
