-  hit_for_pass
-    Pass in fetch. Passes the object without caching it. This will
-    create a so-called hit_for_pass object which has the side effect
-    that the decision not to cache will be cached. This is to allow
-    would-be uncachable requests to be passed to the backend at the
-    same time. The same logic is not necessary in vcl_recv because
-    this happens before any potential queueing for an object takes
-    place.  Note that the TTL for the hit_for_pass object will be set
-    to what the current value of beresp.ttl is. Control will be
-    handled to vcl_deliver on the current request, but subsequent
-    requests will go directly to vcl_pass based on the hit_for_pass
-    object.
