Description
Requirements
It would be nice if the SDK would support caching of the flag requests.
For example add a psr/simple-cache compatible cache storage and then store the results for better performance.
This way not every provider has to implement its own caching.
I looked into hooks but as far as I understand its not possible to implement a caching hook.
The return type is always just an EvaluationContext so its not possible to prevent requesting within a hook.

Research direction
No files, tests, or entry points are named. Start by mapping the SDK's flag-request flow and the hook return type described in the issue, then compare that flow with the PSR-16/simple-cache contract. Define the cache boundary, expiry behavior, and provider-independent tests; done means repeated flag requests can use shared caching without provider-specific implementations.
