`PAGI::FastAPI::RateLimit::Driver::CHI` is a storage driver plugin for
[`PAGI::FastAPI::Middleware::RateLimit`](https://metacpan.org/pod/PAGI::FastAPI::Middleware::RateLimit).
It enables `PAGI::FastAPI` applications to leverage any caching backend
supported by Perl's [`CHI`](https://metacpan.org/pod/CHI) framework,
including Memcached, Redis, FastMmap, SharedMemory, and File-based storage.

By delegating state management to `CHI`, rate-limiting hit counters can
easily be shared across multiple web worker processes or distributed
application clusters.
