feat: add prompt caching, sticky account selection, and non-thinking model

- Implement sticky account selection for prompt cache continuity
- Derive stable session ID from first user message (SHA256 hash)
- Return cache_read_input_tokens in usage metadata
- Add claude-sonnet-4-5 model without thinking
- Remove DEFAULT_THINKING_BUDGET (let API use its default)
- Add prompt caching test
- Update README and CLAUDE.md documentation

-- Automatic switch on 429 rate limit errors
+- Automatic switch only when rate-limited for > 2 minutes
-- Configurable cooldown period for rate-limited accounts
+- Session ID derived from first user message hash for cache continuity

+- Cache is organization-scoped (requires same account + session ID)

 When you add multiple accounts, the proxy automatically:
 
-- **Round-robin rotation**: Each request uses the next available account
+- **Sticky account selection**: Stays on the same account to maximize prompt cache hits
-- **Rate limit handling**: Automatically switches to next account on 429 errors
+- **Smart rate limit handling**: Waits for short rate limits (≤2 min), switches accounts for longer ones
-- **Smart cooldown**: Rate-limited accounts become available after cooldown expires
+- **Automatic cooldown**: Rate-limited accounts become available after reset time expires
 - **Invalid account detection**: Accounts needing re-authentication are marked and skipped
+- **Prompt caching support**: Stable session IDs enable cache hits across conversation turns
