Flutter_cached_network_image: If the url leads to 404, app crash

[Gavin-1991]

If I use the wrong url or the image url from server is not found, the app will crash

Same issue happening with me. I am about to submit the app to client for review and they have removed some urls from api. Now the images are 404 and this plugin does not handle 404 exception.

They may response slowly. The solution I can think out is that backend developers detect image not found and 301 jump to default image url.
This is a trick and temporary solution.

Not just 404, along same line, 403 crash app as well.

D/Error (25502): Caused by: com.kiwi.fluttercrashlytics.FlutterException: HttpException: No valid statuscode.
