Code Review

This pull request adds comprehensive documentation for the LMCache Frontend. While the documentation is well-structured, it inadvertently exposes and promotes several critical security vulnerabilities in the underlying system, including Remote Code Execution (RCE) via the /run_script endpoint, Server-Side Request Forgery (SSRF) via the /proxy endpoint, and sensitive information leakage via the /env endpoint. These issues are exacerbated by the recommended default configuration of binding to all network interfaces (0.0.0.0) without any authentication. Additionally, there are minor inconsistencies in the code examples, such as double URL encoding and an incorrect port, which could confuse users. It is strongly advised to address these architectural security flaws and correct the documentation inconsistencies before encouraging user adoption.
