Cache-control: no-cache request isn't supposed to revalidate/invalidate
cache.

Logic is fairly trivial - exactly as i showed in my nonexisting
variable/wrong syntax example - nginx should simply omit checking
the cache when receiving such request, go for the backend and serve
backend's response without doing anything to the cache.
