 In #16907, Onionoo will be updated to return a 504 error when data is more
 than 6 hours old. karsten also notes that Onionoo was down for 10 hours
 doing backups.

 If we're updating fallback directories for a release, we don't want to
 wait for Onionoo. So if there's cached data younger than a day, or if the
 data is stale and younger than a day, we'll use it.

 I'll post a patch to this once I have the number.
