Describe the bug
For Chroma sub GHz tags using "Json template" as content, the HTTP header "if-modified-since" is not sending correctly. It is sending "Thu, 01 Jan 1970 00:00:00 GMT". Forgive me and let me know if I should be posting this issue on "skiphansen/OpenEPaperLink" repo instead.

To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:

Configure AP for sub GHZ.
Set the a Chroma tag for content of "Json template" and give it a remote URL.
On the remote host, capture the incoming request.
See error:

...
x-esl-mac: 4467090000033196
if-modified-since: Thu, 01 Jan 1970 00:00:00 GMT
...

Expected behavior
The HTTP header should have a valid date:

if-modified-since: Mon, 29 Jul 2024 00:06:10 GMT

Screenshots
n/a

Additional context
The AP's ./current/tagDB.json does have a valid "lastseen" timestamp.

I figured out the "issue". If I pull up the tag's content config screen and save it, whether or not I made any changes, then the next request will send the "if-modified-since" header as 0 or Thu, 01 Jan 1970 00:00:00 GMT, regardless of what's in the tagDB. I guess this can be considered a feature in case the URL has changed and therefore it would be a brand new request.
