improve REST interface security
When using REST, we reflect the client's origin. If the wildcard '*'
is used in allowed_api_origins all origins are allowed. When this is
done, it also added an 'Access-Control-Allow-Credentials: true'
header.
This Credentials header should not be added if the site is matched
only by '*'. This header should be provided only for explicit origins
(e.g. https://example.org) not for the wildcard.
This is now fixed for CORS preflight OPTIONS request as well as normal
GET, PUT, DELETE, POST, PATCH and OPTIONS requests.
A missing Access-Control-Allow-Credentials will prevent the tracker
from being accessed using credentials. This prevents an unauthorized
third party web site from using a user's credentials to access
information in the tracker that is not publicly available.
Added test for this specific case.
In addition, allowed_api_origins can include explicit origins in
addition to '*'. '*' must be first in the list.
Also adapted numerous tests to work with these changes.
