withCache can send stale data #52

@benweitzman

Description

@benweitzman
  1. Create an underlying observable
  2. Wrap using withCache
  3. Attach an observer to the cached observable
  4. Send a value (A) through the underlying observable
  5. Unobserve from the cached observable
  6. Send another value (B) through the underlying
  7. Attach a new observer to the cached observable
  8. New observer receives (A) immediately, despite A being a stale value.

This issue is made worse for observers like toPromise which will unobserved after receiving their first value, meaning they only ever receive a stale value.
