Yes, at the NGINX level, the request should be for the actual file path. In the
Rails app, there would be a helper call like asset_url('red_pin.png'), which
would generate the full path including the fingerprint.

Yes. If you want to bust the cache, there's an assets_version config attribute
you can change. I think it's 1 by default, and you can increment it, and then
precompile assets. Everything will change. But the question you have above
would trump that, I think.
