   *    of a packaged app resource. Its URI has the following format:
   *          http://domain.com/path/to/package.pak!//path/to/subresource.html
   *
   * @param aCallback
   *    an object implementing nsICacheEntryOpenCallback
   *    this is the target of the async result of the operation
   *    aCallback->OnCacheEntryCheck() is called to verify the entry is valid
   *    aCallback->OnCacheEntryAvailable() is called with a pointer to the
   *    the cached entry, if one exists, or an error code otherwise
   *    aCallback is kept alive using an nsCOMPtr until OnCacheEntryAvailable
   *    is called
   *
   * Calling this method will either download the package containing the given
   * resource URI, store it in the cache and pass the cache entry to aCallback,
   * or if that resource has already been downloaded it will be served from
   * the cache.
