feat(web-server): use SHA hash instead of timestamps

Heavy caching relies on SHA of the content rather than mtime timestamps.

Benefits:
- touching a file (without changing content) does not re-fetch the file
- reverting a file does not re-fetch the file (browser will use the previous cache)
- changing preprocessor configuration does invalidate cache (Closes #520)
