Template updates apparently not happening

Description

Timo reported that a page wasn't properly updated after a template it uses was edited. The Parsoid request rate also looks relatively low, which suggests that possibly template updates aren't processed properly in the RestbaseUpdateJob extension or RESTBase itself.

Traced it down to invalid HTTP headers being sent over the wire, which was caused by a bug in the RestbaseUpdateJob extension. The no-cache headers used to force updates were not received by RESTBase for that reason, which caused the template (and revdeletion) updates to not happen as expected.
