[x] Use In Memory Caching to start with.
[x] Cache the data that does not need to refresh every time from database.
[x] Refresh cache when there is no user input for given amount of time
[x] Log when data is cached and when data is fetched from cache if already cached using in house logging mechanism setup previously

Used Microsoft.AspNetCore.ResponseCaching package for caching
Added the middleware in Startup
Resolved the dependency for IMemoryCache in controller.
Cached the GetAll endpoint of UserController because the will not change very frequently.
Used SlidingExpiration and Absolute expiration as MemoryCacheEntryOption to cache the collection.
Logged the cache using previously setup logging mechanism
