Richard Bowman b5fbcc85b5 Succeed immediately if the stitched image is up to date
To save some CPU cycles, we will return immediately if the
images don't look newer than the stitch. NB this does mean
that the stitched image will be repeatedly transferred, as its
URL will change each time it's re-requested.

Alternatively, we could fail with an error, which may be more efficient, at the expense of being uglier.

If there are no images (files with the prefix and suffix) newer than the

This is not flawless logic - if an update process is slow, images might be
saved between starting that process and saving the output. Consequently,
a `True` from this function does not guarantee the output is up to date.
