server: limit wildcard CORS to the public routes (closes #100)
check / check (push) Successful in 1m13s

The CORS wildcard was global, so it also covered the Basic-Auth
protected /metrics, which REPO_POLICIES.md forbids, and it allowed
POST, PUT and DELETE, which no route serves, plus the Authorization
and X-CSRF-Token headers. CORS now sits on a router holding only the
public routes and allows GET and OPTIONS with the Accept and
Content-Type headers. /metrics gets no CORS at all.

Both are mounted routers rather than a Group: chi answers OPTIONS on
a Group's route with 405 before its middleware runs, and any method
/metrics does not register would otherwise fall through to the public
router. So every method on /metrics now meets Basic Auth first, and
/metrics/ is served like /metrics.
