#674: Give better caching directives for static files in web interface

 It looks like my web browser is requesting `/default.css` and
 `/bg_gradient.jpg` every single time I switch to a new page. Even if I use
 back and forward buttons, which don't cause the ''page'' to be requested
 again, it still requests again those two files.

 The requests properly use `If-Modified-Since`, and buildbot properly
 replies with `304 Not Modified`, but it's still annoying. Clutters the
 webserver log, for one.

 According to [http://redbot.org/ redbot], the responses are “stale” as
 soon as they go out. They should have an appropriate `Expires` header, or
 `Cache-Control: max-age=3600` (1 hour expiration from now).
