Create Purge

This API is used to create batch purge on edge server.It is prefix based, i.e. it's possible to invalidate everything under a directory, or with different extensions, etc.content is physically removed only when it is accessed, i.e. proxy checks if the path matches the invalidation prefix, and if it does and the content is in the cache then it is invalidated. If some content is not accessed in 24h (validity period for invalidation request) then stale content can remain on the cache / be served.
