This adds support for handling preflight requests in the REST API and fixes currently mostly broken CORS. Before we just let the user add custom response headers to the configuration "headers" key but this is not the best way because CORs headers and requests need special handling and doing it wrong has security implications. Therefore, I have added specific CORS-related configuration options which control CORS behavour. We are forced to change the "headers" defaults and will notify the users about this in the changelog.
