<description>
The FileCache class provide functionality for file caching and name and path sanitization for the web module.
It helps with avoiding directory traversal attacks, as relative paths are not going to be expanded by accident.
(A directory traversal attach would be if an application receives this get request: [code]server.net/../../../etc/passwd[/code], and it would result in success, if the app then returns the contents of the "passwd" file, which is outside of the root folder of the server.)
It can save contents of files or pages into memory if needed using the [code]set_cached_body()[/code] helper method.

Returns the absolute path to a file if it exists in the given [member wwwroot]. If it doesn't exists returns an empty [String].
