✨ Renovate update version.go

redisCache.get fell through to `switch err.Error()` when Get returned a
nil error with an empty value, panicking on the nil error. simpleredis
never returns that combination today (a miss yields RedisMiss), so it
was unreachable in practice — but the read path is safer treating an
empty, error-free read as a cache miss, which also guarantees err is
non-nil before err.Error() is called.
