Fetcher features

These are some Coldsweat fetcher features worth noting.
Ask for feed freshness before doing a regular GET of the data.
Fetcher follows "301 Moved Permanently" HTTP status code and update feed information accordingly. The typical scenario is a feed previously self hosted then moved to Feedburner - or the other way around.
For each feed Coldsweat keeps has an error counter, so after a given maximum numbers of errors a feed gets disabled. This avoids waste bandwidth and time by polling dead feeds forever. Fetcher also understands "410 Gone" HTTP status code and disable feed immediately.
