/**
 * A builder for creating "Cache-Control" HTTP response headers.
 *
 * <p>Adding Cache-Control directives to HTTP responses can significantly improve the client
 * experience when interacting with a web application. This builder creates opinionated
 * "Cache-Control" headers with response directives only, with several use cases in mind.
 *
 * <ul>
 * <li>Caching HTTP responses with {@code CacheControl cc = CacheControl.maxAge(1, TimeUnit.HOURS)}
 * will result in {@code Cache-Control: "max-age=3600"}</li>
 * <li>Preventing cache with {@code CacheControl cc = CacheControl.noStore()}
 * will result in {@code Cache-Control: "no-store"}</li>
 * <li>Advanced cases like {@code CacheControl cc = CacheControl.maxAge(1, TimeUnit.HOURS).noTransform().cachePublic()}
 * will result in {@code Cache-Control: "max-age=3600, no-transform, public"}</li>
 * </ul>
 *
 * <p>Note that to be efficient, Cache-Control headers should be written along HTTP validators
 * such as "Last-Modified" or "ETag" headers.
