Always update cache for HTTP images if Last Modified is unknown
Currently we default to assuming the cache is up-to-date. This is likely
wrong. Normal web servers provide Last Modified for files they serve.
If it is absent, chances are high the image is served by some sort
of a dynamic service, which may modify the URL on fly.
In any case, always updating the image is a safer choice.
