> Improve Hierarchical Caching documentation

> Key: TS-2587

>
> While investigating hierarchical caching, several questions arose that were
> not addressed by docs:
> - what happens when all parent caches go down? Will the children start going
> to origin themselves? [hmm, in parent.config doc, says for parent, "An
> ordered list of parent servers. If the request cannot be handled by the last
> parent server in the list, then it will be routed to the origin server"]
> - Can a parent cache accept 'normal' traffic?
> - The doc indicates that only the parent need configuration. However, that
> seems to be backwards. Seems like the child needs to know
> a) it has parents (proxy.config.http.parent_proxy_routing_enable)
> b) its parents (in parents.config) and
> c) which requests to go to parents.
