Use cached rendered page to serve HEAD requests

I would guess that no, Googlebot does not use HEAD for initial request, but it could be used for consecutive requests to check for updates.

Handling HEAD was especially useful to me because I want to ping prerender ahead of time to warm my cache before Googlebot would hit it.

Hi guys, apologies for not replying to this sooner - been travelling like crazy. Let me review - I see no reason to not reply on a HEAD request.
