acquia_purge 8.x-1.0-alpha3

I'm happy to announce version 8.x-1.0-alpha3 of the Acquia Purge module for Drupal 8. This version is not intended for general consumption yet and currently only targeted at selected customers part of our "Acquia Purge Alpha Program", which are closely monitored over a period of time to see how their sites perform and more importantly, how hardware interactions play out. This module supports legacy URL invalidation but its main raison d'être is cache invalidation by tags now, which is now natively available on Acquia Cloud.

Changes in alpha3

• Tags in X-Acquia-Purge-Tags are now space-separated.
• Tags containing spaces are now explicitly disallowed as this is the only character which Drupal will never emit as part of a cache tag.
• Issue #2844852 by neetu morwani, adam.weingarten: Minify the cache tags sent in the header
• The ::invalidateTags() implementation now no longer distinguishes between one or multiple tags.
• Codified a new "Alpha Program" access token into the module, as we're preparing the program's launch.
