Fix returning to pages without re-requesting them

Chrome likes to cache HTML and was making a new web socket
request without first requesting a new page. The server however
expires a web socket url after its first use.

To fix this, web socket urls have a rolling cache policy and
can be reconnected to.

Fixes #52
