Description

From each items lastmod attribute, we can infer the lastmod of the whole sitemap and set this as Last-Modified header for the sitemap. Google will then request with an If-Modified-Since header and bytes are saved.

The current patch will add a Last-Modified header if any item if the feed has a lastmod.

I would expect it to add the header only if all items have a lastmod.

As soon as one item doesn't have a lastmod you really can't say anything about the entire feed.

I added a fix for this case. It now keeps track if all items have a lastmod.
