Background subrequests for cache updates. Previously, cache background update might not work as expected, making client wait for it to complete before receiving the final part of a stale response. This could happen if the response could not be sent to the client socket in one filter chain call. Now background cache update is done in a background subrequest. This type of subrequest does not block any other subrequests or the main request.
