#' Automatically cache requests
#'
#' @description
#' Use `req_cache()` to automatically cache HTTP requests. Most API requests
#' are not cacheable, but static files often are.
#'
#' `req_cache()` caches responses to GET requests that have status code 200 and
#' at least one of the standard caching headers (e.g. `Expires`,
#' `Etag`, `Last-Modified`, `Cache-Control`), unless caching has been expressly
#' prohibited with `Cache-Control: no-store`. Typically, a request will still
#' be sent to the server to check that the cached value is still up-to-date,
#' but it will not need to re-download the body value.
#'
#' To learn more about HTTP caching, I recommend the MDN article
#' [HTTP caching](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTTP/Caching).
#'
#' @inheritParams req_perform
#' @param path Path to cache directory. Will be created automatically if it
#' does not exist.
#'
#' For quick and easy caching within a session, you can use `tempfile()`.
#' To cache requests within a package, you can use something like
#' `file.path(tools::R_user_dir("pkgdown", "cache"), "httr2")`.
#'
#' httr2 doesn't provide helpers to manage the cache, but if you want to
#' empty it, you can use something like
#' `unlink(dir(cache_path, full.names = TRUE))`.
#' @param use_on_error If the request errors, and there's a cache response,
#' should `req_perform()` return that instead of generating an error?
#' @param debug When `TRUE` will emit useful messages telling you about
#' cache hits and misses. This can be helpful to understand whether or
#' not caching is actually doing anything for your use case.
#' @param max_n,max_age,max_size Automatically prune the cache by specifying
#' one or more of:
#'
#' * `max_age`: to delete files older than this number of seconds.
#' * `max_n`: to delete files (from oldest to newest) to preserve at
#' most this many files.
#' * `max_size`: to delete files (from oldest to newest) to preserve at
#' most this many bytes.
#'
#' The cache pruning is performed at most once per minute.
#' @returns A modified HTTP [request].
#' @export
#' @examples
#' # GitHub uses HTTP caching for all raw files.
