Description

This PR adds cache-control headers to the product listing endpoint to improve performance through caching.

Changes

  • Added Cache-Control: public, max-age=300, stale-while-revalidate=60 header
  • Added Vary: Accept-Encoding header
  • Products are relatively static data suitable for caching

Motivation

  • Product listing is frequently accessed but rarely changes
  • Caching reduces database load and improves response times
  • Stale-while-revalidate allows serving cached content while fetching fresh data

Testing

  • Request /api/product/list and verify Cache-Control header is present
  • Verify response is cacheable by browsers and CDNs
  • Verify stale content is served while fresh data is fetched

Closes #451
