The displayer API returns two badge image urls in the JSON file that it returns: one is the original PNG badge image, and another is a copy of that badge that was saved on the Mozilla backpack. Currently, I'm retrieving badge images from each individual issuers, but in order to make this more reliable I'd like to use images served up by the Mozilla backpack by default.

I don't want to burden the Mozilla server with requests any more than individual issuers, so I've added a separate Issue #7 to cache remote badge images for display purposes.
