[web] set proper Cache-Control header for static files
- set Cache-Control max-age to match Expires
- use the max_age method (defaults to 1 week) instead of hardcoded 6
months

[web] use a redirect for /data/foo requests that don't use the instance md5 hash
The actual file contents can be cached for a long time. If the request
doesn't use the hash, that's wrong. Using a redirect lets keep the
caching for the actual file contents while not breaking requests missing
the hash.

[web] fix typo in doc string

[web] stop adding an Expires header with all responses
As per RFC 1945 (HTTP 1.0):
If the date given is equal to or earlier than the value of the Date
header, the recipient must not cache the enclosed entity.
As per RFC 7234 (HTTP 1.1 Caching):
If a response includes a Cache-Control field with the max-age
directive (Section 5.2.2.8), a recipient MUST ignore the Expires
field.
Bottom line, the Expires header is now handled wherever the
Cache-Control is handled: inside cache managers.
