The code says that some servers respond with 403 codes when they really
mean 405 codes. But we still need to account for legitimate 403 codes.
Before this change, I noticed that sstate mirror checking was taking a
very long time when I purposely entered incorrect credentials into my
.netrc file for our sstate mirror. Instrumenting the code, I discovered
tracebacks like the following for every mirror access attempt:
File "/home/laplante/yocto/sources/poky/meta/classes/sstate.bbclass", line 839, in checkstatus
fetcher.checkstatus()
File "/home/laplante/yocto/sources/poky/bitbake/lib/bb/fetch2/__init__.py", line 1736, in checkstatus
ret = try_mirrors(self, self.d, ud, mirrors, True)
File "/home/laplante/yocto/sources/poky/bitbake/lib/bb/fetch2/__init__.py", line 1077, in try_mirrors
ret = try_mirror_url(fetch, origud, uds[index], ld, check)
File "/home/laplante/yocto/sources/poky/bitbake/lib/bb/fetch2/__init__.py", line 979, in try_mirror_url
found = ud.method.checkstatus(fetch, ud, ld)
File "/home/laplante/yocto/sources/poky/bitbake/lib/bb/fetch2/wget.py", line 337, in checkstatus
opener.open(r)
File "/usr/lib/python3.5/urllib/request.py", line 472, in open
response = meth(req, response)
File "/usr/lib/python3.5/urllib/request.py", line 582, in http_response
'http', request, response, code, msg, hdrs)
File "/usr/lib/python3.5/urllib/request.py", line 504, in error
result = self._call_chain(*args)
File "/usr/lib/python3.5/urllib/request.py", line 444, in _call_chain
result = func(*args)

... (repeats until recursion depth is reached)
Solution is to make sure we only attempt the GET request once when handling 403/405 error codes.
