[x265] x265 download mirrors

[ebalsley at pm.me]

I’d like to update MacPorts x265 to enable the 10-bit variant.  As I started reading the docs and source code, I am confused about where is the best place to obtain source code.  Currently MacPorts is using https://download.videolan.org/pub/videolan/x265/ <https://download.videolan.org/pub/videolan/x265/> but this is over a year old with version 3.2.1.

First I checked http://x265.org/developers/ <http://x265.org/developers/>.  This suggests downloading from http://x265.org/downloads/ <http://x265.org/downloads/> but that link is password protected.

I found this page https://bitbucket.org/multicoreware/x265_git <https://bitbucket.org/multicoreware/x265_git>
This shows version 3.5 is released, but the download page only has tarballs through 3.3.

GitHub has a tarball available for 3.4.
https://github.com/videolan/x265/releases <https://github.com/videolan/x265/releases>

Which URL would be the most stable to use in port file?

Thanks,
Elliott
