Implement XSS override

There are a number of situations that come up in developement, where it
is very useful to launch phosphor-webui from a remote host.  Currently
this is disallowed based on the bmcweb security posture.

This commit makes the BMCWEB_INSECURE_DISABLE_XSS_PREVENTION much more
useful, by actually applying the headers that would allow one to launch
the webui from a remote system successfully.

Tested by:
Adding BMCWEB_INSECURE_DISABLE_XSS_PREVENTION=ON to the cmake options
in the bitbake file, then launching phosphor-webui using
npm run-script server

WebUI logged in without issue
