Add CORS Proxy

[pjdufour]

Add simple configuration block to the default NGINX server to add additional proxy for /cors to /geoserver that adds

Access-Control-Allow-Origin: *`

but doesn't interfere with direct /geoserver calls. Needed for cross-orgin GeoJSON WFS requests.

For example, from:

http://example.com/geoserver/wfs?srsName=EPSG%3A4326&typename=geonode%3Aexamplelayer&outputFormat=json&version=1.0.0&service=WFS&request=GetFeature

to

http://example.com/cors/geoserver/wfs?srsName=EPSG%3A4326&typename=geonode%3Aexamplelayer&outputFormat=json&version=1.0.0&service=WFS&request=GetFeature

Implementation from http://enable-cors.org/server_nginx.html or something like that. Maybe just HTTP GET.

Hotfix:

        location /cors/ {
                proxy_pass      http://127.0.0.1:8080/;
                include         /etc/nginx/proxy.conf;
                add_header 'Access-Control-Allow-Origin' '*';
                add_header 'Access-Control-Allow-Credentials' 'false';
                add_header 'Access-Control-Allow-Methods' 'GET';
        }

Using: Ubuntu 14.04 - Geonode 2.4.1

Thanks for your attention.

I've always inserted header in Apache or NGINX for the specific location/path. Really should be added deeper in stack but it is not right not.
