improve save method, now we know that 302 errors indicates that wayback machine is archiving the URL and hasn't yet archived. We construct an artifical archive with the current UTC time and check for HTTP status code 20* or 30*. If we verify the archival, we return the artifical archive. The artificial archive will automatically point to the new archive or in best case will be the new archive after some time.
