improve support for using a local cache with CFHTTP

Description

The apache http client supports an optional cache layer

<cfscript>
 http url="...." cachename="lucee_cache";
</cfscript>

where the cache is an application/server/content defined cache

the httpclient’s CacheResponseStatus should be added a key/value in the result

at the moment

it’s only via a broadly defined cacheHandler, not configurable between individual calls https://github.com/lucee/Lucee/blob/6.0/core/src/main/java/lucee/runtime/tag/Http.java#L773
it doesn’t respect http cache semantics (i.e. POST should never be cached, expires, no-cache headers etc) https://github.com/lucee/Lucee/blob/6.0/core/src/main/java/lucee/runtime/tag/Http.java#L1317
it’s only opt in via cachedWithin (request/timestamp) https://docs.lucee.org/reference/tags/http.html#attribute-cachedwithin
isn’t clearly documented
returned cached results lack metadata indicating it was cached

None
