Version needed to refresh "Expires" timestamp

[glassfishrobot]

Currently, browsers are caching the com_sun_faces_ajax.js file, but always generate a "If-Modified-Since" request. In order to increase performance, we would like to set an "Expires" header when resources are requested by the browser; thus, eliminating unnecessary requests.

In order for new resources (e.g., a minor release) to be loaded by the browser, without expiring or clearing the cache manually, either the file name or path must change. A simple way to achieve this is to add a version number in the path. For example:

/META-INF/jsfx0_1_4/com_sun_faces_ajax.js /META-INF/jsfx0_1_4/com_sun_faces_ajax-max.js

Not only would this help browser caching, but it would indicate what version is currently being used by the app – please see issue #80.
