Changes
Added comprehensive README.md covering:
PROXY_TARGETandPROXY_ROUTESsetup with matching logic (exact || startsWith(route + '/'))Key Technical Notes
Route matching behavior:
/apimatches/apiand/api/*/matches only root path (prefix check looks for//, which normal paths don't match)Performance characteristics documented: edge processing adds latency overhead but can reduce overall latency vs distant origin routing.
