Bypass Cache if client sets max-age=0

[IainBapty]

It doesn't look like there is currently a way to invalidate the in-memory cache if the client has requested the latest value. If the client needs the very latest value then there is no way to force the request down to the handler.

Perhaps if the client sets:

Cache-Control:max-age=0

or

Cache-Control:no-cache

then CachingInterceptor should skip TryGetValidCacheEntry. What do you think?

Absolutely correct, although the no-cache and the max-age should take two different code paths. This stuff is kind of already implemented in a separate branch i ought to push back into master. Nag me tomorrow to make sure I do it :)

Thanks Seb, any chance of that push?

Sorry i was off sick. Will try and make a push tonight, but it's more likely that it'll be tomorrow during the day.
