If the cache mode is no-store, we must not interact with the cache at
all.
If the cache mode is reload, we must not use any cached response.
If the cache-mode is only-if-cached or force-cache, we are permitted
to respond with stale cache responses.
Note that we currently cannot test only-if-cached in test-web. Setting
this mode also requires setting the cors mode to same-origin, but our
http-test-server infra requires setting the cors mode to cors.
We currently disable the disk cache because the WPT runner will run more
than one RequestServer process at a time. The SQLite database does not
handle this concurrent read/write access well.
We will now enable the disk cache with a per-process database. This is
needed to ensure that WPT Fetch cache tests are sufficiently handled by
RequestServer.
This directive allows our disk cache to serve stale responses for a time
indicated by the directive itself, while we revalidate the response in
the background.
Issuing requests that weren't initiated by a client is a new thing for
RequestServer. In this implementation, we associate the request with
the client that initiated the request to the stale cache entry. This
adds a "background request" mode to the Request object, to prevent us
from trying to send any of the revalidation response over IPC.
We currently have two ongoing implementations of RFC 9111, HTTP caching.
In order to consolidate these, this patch moves the implementation from
RequestServer to LibHTTP for re-use within LibWeb.
