fix(display): keep one object URL per cached slide, and give them back

The Cache Storage media cache minted a new object URL on every lookup
and never revoked any. Every state refresh looks up every cached slide,
so a running display pinned one more blob per slide per refresh until
the browser refused its requests with net::ERR_INSUFFICIENT_RESOURCES.
It then showed its offline banner on a working network. Two tabs leaked
twice as fast, and real photographs fill blob storage far sooner than
test slides.

Each cache entry now has exactly one object URL:
- every lookup reuses it;
- pruning or replacing the entry revokes it;
- release(), new on SignageMediaCache, revokes all of them, and the
  controller calls it on stop once the stage is gone.

Two lookups of one slide racing each other keep the first URL and make
no second one. The in-memory cache has nothing to give back.

- * What a display and Signage's server say to each other, defined once.
- *
- * The display controller builds these messages and the viewer routes read them, from this one file.
- * They used to be described twice — once in the controller's own interfaces and once in each
- * route's field-by-field parsing — and the two descriptions disagreed about one thing: the display
- * sent `null` for "nothing to report" and the heartbeat route accepted only a *missing* field. Every
- * heartbeat from a screen showing a native image was refused with a 400, silently, for as long as it
- * ran. Nothing here can drift that way again, because there is nothing to drift between.
- *
- * Three rules hold for every message:
- *
- * - **A nullable field accepts `null` explicitly.** `null` means "I have nothing", and is a value.
- * - **An absent field means "not reported".** A receiver keeps whatever it already had.
- * - **An unknown field is ignored, never refused.** A newer display reporting something an older
- *   server does not know yet must still be heard; refusing it would be this same bug in reverse.
- *
- * Like the rest of `src/shared`, it imports nothing from outside `src/shared`: it is compiled into the browser
- * artifact as well as the server, and must pull neither the module SDK nor Node into a display.
