Ludovic Courtès 71e2065a38 substitute: Honor client-provided empty URL list.
Before that, 'guix build --substitute-urls=""' would lead to using the
daemon's own URL list instead of the empty list.  The 'or*' hack, which
is to blame, had become unnecessary since commit
fb4bf72be3.

Reported by Mark H Weaver <mhw@netris.org>.

(%cache-urls): Use 'or' instead of 'or*'.
* tests/store.scm ("substitute query, alternating URLs"): Add test with
empty URL list.
