comply with http caching validation with etag and if-modified-since
Summary
Change the caching validation precedence to comply with HTTP RFC: https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/rfc7232#section-6
The issue was that it must not check the "If-Modified-Since" header when the "If-None-Match" is set. It prioritize file content for caching instead of time based caching (I encountered this when timestamp on file are incorrect for example).
