Summary0005745: wallet should include a "client version cache breaker" in requests to /wire and /keys
DescriptionWhen the wallet is upgraded, it might have stale /keys or /wire information. Similarly, sometimes a deployment might have sent wrong expiration headers, and thus /keys and /wire would live in the cache for too long.

To fix this, the wallet should include a "client version cache breaker" parameter. This allows us to force a re-download of the exchange's information. To preserve privacy, this version number should change as rarely as possible and stay consistent across implementations (browser vs phone etc.).

The request looks like this (cv = client version):
