//! L1 Cache: Special-token boundary prefix cache
//!
//! Caches tokenization results at ALL special token boundaries.
//! Special tokens (like `<|im_start|>`, `<|im_end|>`) are atomic in BPE tokenizers (special: true, normalized: false),
//! making them the ONLY safe split points that guarantee correctness.
//!
//! **Design**: Cache at every special token boundary (not at fixed granularity intervals)
//! - Simple: No granularity parameter, no search windows
//! - Efficient: Fewer cache entries (10 instead of 64 for typical 8KB prompt)
//! - Natural: Aligns with actual chat template structure
//!
//! Example:
//!
//! Template: "<|im_start|>system\nYou are helpful.<|im_end|><|im_start|>user\n{query}<|im_end|>"
//!
//! Request 1: "<|im_start|>system\nYou are helpful.<|im_end|><|im_start|>user\nWhat is 2+2?<|im_end|>"
//! Request 2: "<|im_start|>system\nYou are helpful.<|im_end|><|im_start|>user\nHello!<|im_end|>"
//!
//! Cache points: After each "<|im_end|>" (atomic tokens, guaranteed safe)
//! Result: tokenize(prefix) + tokenize(suffix) == tokenize(prefix + suffix)
