/** \file
 * Caching of converted contents (interface).
 *
 * The cache contains a ::content structure for each url. If a structure is not
 * in state CONTENT_STATUS_DONE, then loading and converting must be actively
 * in progress, so that when a not done content is retrieved no action needs
 * to be taken to load it.
 *
 * Each content in the cache is either freeable or non-freeable. If an entry
 * is freeable, the cache may destroy it through content_destroy() at any time.
 *
 * The cache uses the cache element of struct content.
