[TYPO3-core] RFC #17181: Add Expires header to _.htaccess

[Steffen Gebert]

Hi!

This is a SVN patch request.

Type: Bugfix

Bugtracker reference:
http://bugs.typo3.org/view.php?id=

Branches:
trunk

Problem:
Not every administrator invests time to optimize performance, but 
bitches TYPO3 for its slowliness.
Currently, we lack Expires header, at least for the huge number of 
CSS/JS files used in BE.

Solution:
Add Expires header for \.(css|js) files in _.htaccess and enable them by 
default (as they are save ones [1]).

Note:
The pattern also matches .(css|js).gzip, as there is no trailing $.
I'm running sites, which have it enabled since ages also for all other 
resource files like gif and so on.
See also example.htaccess of EXT:scriptmerger [2]


Kind regards
Steffen
