1. Why is this pull request needed and what does it do?

cache plugin mutates responses of other plugins:
https://github.com/coredns/coredns/blob/master/plugin/cache/cache.go#L216-L228
The behavior seems to be against the plugin guideline:

Using a custom ResponseWriter, a plugin can mutate a response when another plugin further down the chain writes the response to the client. If a plugin mutates a response it MUST make a copy of the entire response before doing so. A response is a pointer to a dns.Msg and as such you will be manipulating the original response, which could have been generated from a data store.

2. Which issues (if any) are related?

Fixes #7335

3. Which documentation changes (if any) need to be made?

None

4. Does this introduce a backward incompatible change or deprecation?

No
