A cached source and its variants were served until eviction, so a
changed image at the same URL was never picked up.
Once a source was last checked 24 hours ago, the next request for one
of its images asks upstream with If-None-Match and If-Modified-Since,
from the ETag and Last-Modified it stored. A 304 renews the source and
its variant without a download or a conversion. New bytes replace the
source, and each variant made before them is converted again. A failed
check serves the cached image and puts the URL in the negative cache.
Sources and variants not checked successfully for 30 days are evicted.
A variant file's modification time is its source's check time, so a
hit still makes no database call.
Existing tests change only in call signatures. The test that asserted
two-day-old entries are served without asking upstream is replaced by
the new ones.

The new package internal/imageproxy holds Proxy, which was imgcache.Service,
with its Config, ImageResponse, CacheStatus and errors. imageproxy.New makes
and registers the counters of upstream fetches and transforms.
internal/imgcache holds the cache only, with its hit and miss counters, and
imgcache.CacheConfig is imgcache.Config. The cache reads and writes each kind
it keeps with one pair of methods: Variant and PutVariant, Source and
PutSource, Failure and PutFailure. Source replaces LookupSource followed by
GetSourceContent. imgcache.go and module.go are gone. The proxy's tests moved
with it. The cache's tests check that the reconciliation pass removes an empty
or cut file and its row. The proxy's tests remove them by hand, then check
that Get fetches or converts again.
