Serve static files directly if not caught by web server
if the query variable q= is fed the location of a file with the following extensions and that file exists, serve it directly from the file system:
jpg,jpeg,gif,png,ico,css,js,htm,html,map,ttf,woff,woff2,svg
In most cases, the web server should be configured to intercept these files and a request should never actually get to us. In some specialized circumstances, there may be a need to have the application handle these files.
Note: Because they are static files, they are set to allow caching under the same terms as the published web server configuration recommendations.
