Can you use a cache after clear()?

[dmrolfs]

Should you be able to insert into the cache after you clear() it? The test case below fails on the final line since the get() returns None (after insert and wait). Looking at the code, I believe this is a bug and not a design decision; however, I don't see an attempt to use a cache after clear in the examples or tests.

    use claim::*;
    use pretty_assertions::assert_eq;

    #[test]
    fn test_basic_cache_add_after_clear() {
        let ttl = Duration::from_secs(60);
        block_on(async {
            let cache = AsyncCache::builder(1000, 100)
                .set_metrics(true)
                .set_ignore_internal_cost(true)
                .finalize()
                .expect("failed creating cache");

            assert!(cache.insert_with_ttl("foo".to_string(), 17.to_string(), 1, ttl).await);
            assert!(cache.insert_with_ttl("bar".to_string(), "otis".to_string(), 1, ttl).await);
            assert_ok!(cache.wait().await);

            assert_eq!(assert_some!(cache.get(&"foo".to_string())).value(), &17.to_string());
            assert_eq!(assert_some!(cache.get(&"bar".to_string())).value(), &"otis".to_string());

            assert_ok!(cache.clear());
            assert_ok!(cache.wait().await);

            assert_none!(cache.get(&"foo".to_string()));

            assert!(cache.insert_with_ttl("zed".to_string(), 33.to_string(), 1, ttl).await);
            assert_ok!(cache.wait().await);

            assert_none!(cache.get(&"bar".to_string()));
            assert_eq!(assert_some!(cache.get(&"zed".to_string())).value(), &33.to_string());
        });
    }

Thanks, @dmrolfs. This is a bug and only happens in AsyncCache. I have tested your code and found that sometimes it gets the correct result but sometimes it fails.

This is because the clear is still running when you insert zed.
