fai-mirror source.list.d/xyz not used (bug)

Hi,

I use the feature of apt to seperate my source.list into different files. They are located in the folder /etc/apt/source.lis.d/.

Accordingly, the same feature I used in my configuration of /etc/fai/apt/...
I noticed that the lists in the folder /etc/fai/apt/source.lis.d/ are not used. A look into fai-mirror reviled that you are not taking them into account.

This might not be a bug per-se but is a behaviour, which is not expected by a (skilled) Debian administrator. To patch this bug, I needed only one line of execution code. 

Here is the diff:

I hope this helps to improve the stable release.
