CORS expose headers option (#144)

* Small typo fix of commas

* Also expose if cors header is allowed

* WIP: add cors support to cors option

* Add rough support in code for expose-headers

* Add cors expose option to man page template

* Fix tests to handle expose cors

* Add doc updates for SERVER_CORS_EXPOSE_HEADERS

+## Exposed headers
+
+The server also supports a list of [CORS exposed headers to scripts](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTTP/Headers/Access-Control-Expose-Headers) separated by commas.
+
+This feature depends on `--cors-allow-origins` to be used along with this feature. It can be controlled by the string `--cors-expose-headers` option or the equivalent [SERVER_CORS_EXPOSE_HEADERS](./../configuration/environment-variables.md#server_cors_expose_headers) env.
+
+!!! info "Tips"
+    - The default exposed headers value is `origin, content-type`.
+    - The server also supports [preflight requests](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Glossary/Preflight_request) via the `OPTIONS` method. See [Preflighted requests in CORS](./../http-methods/#preflighted-requests-in-cors).
+
+Below is an example of how to CORS.
