/**
 * Cache for converted files. The cache works as follows:
 *
 * The key for a cache item consists of the absolute name of the original
 * file and the format name of the target format.  The original file in the
 * user directory is named \c orig_from in the code, the format name is named
 * \c to_format. Example:
 * \c orig_from = "/home/me/myfigure.fig"
 * \c to_format = "eps"
 * A cache item is considered up to date (inCache() returns \c true) if
 * - The cache contains an item with key (\c orig_to, \c to_format)
 * - The stored timestamp of the item is identical with the actual timestamp
 *   of \c orig_from, or, if that is not the case, the stored checksum is
 *   identical with the actual checksum of \c orig_from.
 * Otherwise the item is not considered up to date, and add() will refresh it.
 *
 * There is no cache maintenance yet (max size, max age etc.)
