allow token-authenticated requests cross-origin by default

we already apply this logic in our server-side checks,
but browsers check `Access-Control-Allow-Origin` headers themselves as well,
meaning that token-authenticated requests can’t be made cross-origin without CORS headers from browsers,
only scripts.

This makes default browser and server-side origin checks consistent
