Caching doesn't seem to work with http-redirector

Hi,

I've double checked with the APT maintainers and they confirmed that it does the right thing and that the files are correctly cached. It would appear to be more of a problem with one of the mirrors that you were redirected to.

I'm going to leave the issue open as I might implement some check to detect those mirrors in order to avoid them whenever apt wants to use that feature.

That's good news at least it's something that might be able to be fixed down the line.

Responses from the redirector itself are not cached either. I suggested to make them short-term cachable in issue #66. Should mitigate this issue somewhat.
