no-cache directives with field names are transmitted downstream
---------------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: HTTPCLIENT-964
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HTTPCLIENT-964
             Project: HttpComponents HttpClient
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Cache
    Affects Versions: 4.1 Alpha2
            Reporter: Jonathan Moore
            Priority: Trivial


"Field names MUST NOT be included with the no-cache directive in a request."

http://www.w3.org/Protocols/rfc2616/rfc2616-sec14.html#sec14.9.4

Currently, the cache implementation allows a request containing something like:
    Cache-Control: no-cache="Content-Location"
to be passed downstream towards the origin.

This is another one of those tricky situations where our client has passed us a 
non-compliant request.
