Regression: Since #19389 boot image of debian is not updated and installation is broken
Description
Hi,
since the filenames for bootimage/initrd are containing some hash based on the media, foreman will not download new bootimages when debian is releasing a minor version like today (10.2 -> 10.3).
While the repo is updated in background, the packages, which get downloaded during preseed, doesn't match the image anymore and the installtion fails with an error.

Actually this looks like a duplicate of https://projects.theforeman.org/issues/25733
but #25733 should already be fixed and we still suffer from this bug

Hello, I think it's still a bug. Help me to understand the problem. We currently calculate the unique ID from URL, however when Debian releases new version, the installation URL remains the same, therefore smart proxy has no reason to redownload the files (as we currently do not fetch ETAG/Last-Changed HTTP header). If we calculate the hash from the URL + minor/major version of the OS that would do it when new version is released.

WORKAROUND: Delete those PXE files and smart proxy will redownload them. PR in a minute.

I guess this should fix it.
