In commit b3f570512, we changed the key generator hash digest class, and
we wrote:

We didn't realize that ActiveStorage also used the old hash digest class
to generated the signed URLs used to access an image. This doesn't
affect us when we generate images using `image.variant`, because that
generates a new URL on the fly using the new hash digest class. However,
URLs referencing the images generated using the old hash digest class,
like the ones in the HTML content generated with CKEditor, would result
in 404 errors.
So we're rotating the signed IDs generated by earlier versions of
ActiveStorage. This way both new and old images will be correctly
displayed.
Note that, unlike cookies, which will keep working once rotated even if
we delete the code to rotate them, old ActiveStorage URLs will always
need the code rotating them in order to keep working.
