Fluid: Do not show fluid if frame is out of cache range

Before: If the current frame is out of the cache start/end range, the viewport will show the fluid as it was on the last frame that was still in the cache frame range.

Now: If the current frame is out of the cache start/end range, the viewport will show no fluid at all (even if there are cache files present for this frame).

This fix is related / in response to T79423.
