Constants for the CachePolicy parameter:
const UseProtocolCachePolicy= 0Specifies that the caching logic defined in the protocol implementation, if any, is used for a particular URL load request. This is the default policy for URL load requests.
const ReloadIgnoringCacheData= 1Specifies that the data for the URL load should be loaded from the originating source. No existing cache data should be used to satisfy a URL load request.
