The Anthropic translate provider builds the upstream request from scratch and
never emitted cache_control, so prompt caching was impossible for OpenAI-format
clients routed through cloud-proxy — even though the entire system prompt + tools
prefix is re-sent on every agentic turn.
Add an opt-in cache_prompt flag (ProxyOptions.cache_prompt; model YAML
proxy.cache_prompt: true). On a translate+anthropic model, buildAnthropicRequest
injects cache_control:{type:ephemeral} on the stable prefix — the system block,
the last tool, and the last message block (at most 3 of Anthropic's 4 allowed
breakpoints). Anthropic then serves the repeated prefix at the cache-read rate
(0.1x input) on subsequent calls, cutting cost on multi-turn/agentic workloads.
No effect in passthrough mode, for non-Anthropic providers, or when unset.
System is widened to any so it can carry the block form required to attach
cache_control, while still marshalling as a bare string when caching is off.
Adds a unit test asserting exactly three breakpoints when on and none when off,
and documents the option in docs/content/operations/cloud-proxy.md.
