Adds a deleteCache() method to the HasCaching trait that allows deleting a cached response without going through the middleware pipeline. Useful for applications that only want to delete the cache without immediately retrieving fresh data.

Summary
Currently,
invalidateCache()only takes effect insideCacheMiddleware, meaning the cache is only refreshed when a request is actually sent. There's no way to just delete a cached response without making an API call.In my own application I ran into redundant API calls — I only wanted to invalidate the cache, not immediately retrieve fresh data. This PR adds a
deleteCache()method to theHasCachingtrait that deletes the cached response directly, without going through the middleware pipeline.Usage
