Title: Add support for loading Ivy settings from a URL

I am in the process of migrating an Ant build to SBT. We load our ivysettings.xml from an http url. This patch adds support for that to sbt. The syntax in build.sbt looks like

externalIvySettings(url("your_url_here"))

This patch keeps compatibility with the current syntax, i.e.

externalIvySettings()

and

externalIvySettings(baseDirectory(_ / "whatever.xml"))

still work.
