RFC3229 enabled

Experimental support for RFC 3229 "feed" instance manipulation method:

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} /blog/index.atom$
RewriteCond %{HTTP:A-IM} \bfeed\b
RewriteCond /home/rubys/blog/history/index.%{HTTP:If-None-Match}.asis -s
RewriteRule index.atom$ /blog/history/index.%{HTTP:If-None-Match}.asis

cache.py has the delta function.

Thanks for making this available, Sam.  FWIW, the feed worked fine with my latest internal build of FeedDemon, returning HTTP 226 ("IM Used") as expected.
