When downloading issues from github api,
An improvement is to only download if the file has been modified.
We can query the api by asking the server if the file has been modified since .
The response from server will either be:
not modified since that date, or
has been modified, here is the newer file.
Implementing this will allow us to avoid downloading issue-files that we already have, and have not been modified.
A second benefit of this is that the query will not result in a "cost" of one of our "60/5000" quota, if the file has not been modified.
