CacheDisable cannot occur within <Directory> section

Remove "directory" from context on:

https://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.4/mod/mod_cache.html#cachedisable

Currently:
Context:	server config, virtual host, directory, .htaccess

Proposed change:
Context:	server config, virtual host, .htaccess
Comment 1 Christophe JAILLET 2020-06-10 20:31:54 UTC 
The doc should be tweaked.

The "directory" mentioned is related to a set of directives. See [1].
This set is: <Directory>, <Location>, <Files>, <If>, and <Proxy>


However, this directive is explicitly disallowed in <Directory>, <File> and
<If> in the code.

So it should work only in <Location> and <Proxy>.
