Post-leap-second update to do list #9479

@mhvk

Description

@mhvk

#9365 introduced the ability to update ERFA leap seconds. A few updates would still be nice

  • Document it in a bit more detail, in particular to tell how to avoid downloading with iers.conf.auto_download = False (both in iers docs and in LeapSeconds docstring).
  • Document how it can be used to simulate having missing leap seconds (@eteq).
  • Make the various URLs lists that include mirrors (easier with Cache preload #9182 merged).
  • Hard-code system files for more various operating systems.

System leap second file locations:

  • Debian/Ubuntu: '/usr/share/zoneinfo/leap-seconds.list'
