Description
Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
We all know CORS is a huge pain to set up. At least if you want to do it right and don't already have a working snippet to paste in.
I love this Proxy Manager, because it makes many things much more easy, but it makes CORS even worse.
I have been able to create a proxy host, that can handle preflight cors requests with a custom location (like in #202), but i still think there should be a way to set CORS with the GUI.
A GUI Option was mentioned in #202, but since that wasn't the original topic of the issue i created this issue dedicated to a gui solution.
Describe the solution you'd like
A GUI for CORS in the Advanced Tab, to control CORS like this:

Research direction
Start with the proxy host Advanced tab and the custom-location approach described in #202, then review the provided CORS configuration screenshot. Done means the GUI exposes the requested CORS controls and applies them to proxy hosts, including preflight requests.
