@Cacheable self-invocation method calls

Using @Cacheable: In proxy mode (which is the default), only external method calls coming in through the proxy are intercepted. This means that self-invocation (in effect, a method within the target object calling another method of the target object) will not lead to an actual caching at runtime even if the invoked method is marked with @Cacheable
