### Setup Default Mirror for All Registries

This is an example of using a mirror regardless of the intended registry.

If you wish to ensure *only* the mirror is utilised and the upstream not consulted, set the mirror as the `server` instead of a host.

You may still specify additional hosts if you'd like to use other mirrors first.
