Workaround for broken cache expiry handling

Deno's cache API does not respect expiry dates.
This meant that feeds were cached much longer than intended.

This PR implments a manual cache handling instead of relying on
Deno's implementation. Relevant issue: https://github.com/denoland/deno/issues/25795
