CDN cache purging

By default, the API will purge CDN cache on an instance-level scope. If a website experienced instability after unpublishing an item, consider adding a purge scope in Settings or by using the Create Setting endpoint. The payload should be:

{
	"category": "general",
	"keyFriendly": "Purge Item Scope",
	"key": "purge_item_scope",
	"value": "model",
	"admin": true,
	"dataType": "dropdown",
	"options": "instance:Instance-level scope;model:Model-level scope;item:Item-level scope",
	"tips": "Changes the scope of purging the CDN cache when an item is published or unpublished."
}
