Title: Use CacheControl instead of custom cache code

* [ ] Bundle CacheControl and lockfile
* [ ] Use cross platform standard path locations
* [ ] Some way to disable caching?
* [ ] Soft fail if we cannot write to our cache directory
* [x] Deprecate the --download-cache option & removes the download cache code.
* [x] Remove the in memory page cache on the index
* [x] Use CacheControl to cache all cacheable HTTP requests to the filesystem.
* Properly handles CacheControl headers for unconditional caching.
* Use ETag and Last-Modified headers to attempt to do a conditional HTTP request to speed up cache misses and turn them into cache hits.
* Remove some concurrency unsafe code in the download cache accesses.
