Adds support for the --pypi-mirror parameter for all operations which
may result in a virtualenv initialization.
When a virtualenv is initialized, pip attempts to download several
dependencies from PyPI. If PyPI is unavailable, virtualenv silently uses
local packages instead, which is acceptable in most cases. However, in
some environments connection attempts to PyPI will stall rather than
fail, causing a pipenv timeout. By using the mirror specified by
--pypi-mirror, we can ensure virtualenv will attempt to download
dependencies from an accessible mirror instead of PyPI.
