Non-Cacheable Data and Shopping Interaction

Client-side requests for non-cacheable data and interactions (for example, add-to-cart, search) should go directly to the commerce endpoint (either commerce solution or integration layer) via CDN / Dispatcher. Remove any calls where AEM was just a proxy.
