// be globally unique to identify this request, since any conflicting
// cache keys could result in invalid data being returned from the cache.
// The Key does not need to include ACL or DC information, since the

// Token is the ACL token associated with this request.

// Datacenter is the datacenter that the request is targeting.

// PeerName is the peer that the request is targeting.

// All of these values are used to partition the cache. The cache framework
// today partitions data on these values to simplify behavior: by
// partitioning ACL tokens, the cache doesn't need to be smart about
// filtering results. By filtering datacenter/peer results, the cache can
// service the multi-DC/multi-peer nature of Consul. This comes at the expense of
// working set size, but in general the effect is minimal.

// MaxAge if set limits how stale a cache entry can be. If it is non-zero and
// there is an entry in cache that is older than specified, it is treated as a

// MustRevalidate forces a new lookup of the cache even if there is an
// existing one that has not expired. It is implied by HTTP requests with
// `Cache-Control: max-age=0` but we can't distinguish that case from the
// unset case for MaxAge. Later we may support revalidating the index without
// a full re-fetch but for now the only option is to refetch. It is ignored
// for cachetypes with Refresh = true.
