Changes

I hit this while following up on #17481. The same header mutation that crashed the Cloudflare adapter on cached image responses also lives in core: applyCacheHeaders() calls response.headers.set() directly on the response a route returns, and CacheHandler deletes CDN-Cache-Control and Cache-Tag from the response a provider returns. Both throw TypeError: immutable when the response headers can't be modified, which is the case for any response returned straight from fetch(). A route that proxies an upstream (return fetch(...) plus cache.set({ maxAge })) gets a 500 on every request. A user already reported this error class when combining cache.set() with a Vary header on Cloudflare (comment on #17408). I haven't verified that path, it needs the Cloudflare dev runtime, but the repro here is adapter free and fails on plain Node.

The fix mirrors what #17481 did in the adapter: try the mutation, and when it throws, rebuild the response with new Response(response.body, response) and apply the headers to the copy. The first .set() throws before changing anything, so applying them again can't duplicate headers. Header stripping now also checks has() first, so provider responses without CDN headers aren't rebuilt for nothing.

One heads up: pnpm install with the pinned pnpm also dropped a stale triage/gh-17583 importer from the lockfile that #17584 left behind. I can split that out if you'd rather keep it.

Testing

Two new fixtures. Without the fix all four new tests fail with a 500 instead of a 200: a memoryCache() route returning a fetch() proxied response, and a provider whose onRequest serves responses with immutable headers, where the CDN header stripping used to crash even when those headers weren't present. With the fix they pass and the second request is served as a cache HIT. The cache unit suite (162 tests) and the neighbouring integration tests still pass. I also reproduced the crash end to end against published astro 7.1.6 with @astrojs/node before writing the fix.
