Set security headers

Set common security headers (X-XSS-Protection, X-Frame-Options, X-Content-Type-Options, Permissions-Policy, Referrer-Policy, Strict-Transport-Security, Content-Security-Policy).

export default {
  async fetch(request) {
    const DEFAULT_SECURITY_HEADERS = {

    Secure your application with Content-Security-Policy headers.
    Enabling these headers will permit content from a trusted domain and all its subdomains.
    @see https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTTP/Headers/Content-Security-Policy
    "Content-Security-Policy": "default-src 'self' example.com *.example.com",
    */
      /*
    You can also set Strict-Transport-Security headers.
    These are not automatically set because your website might get added to Chrome's HSTS preload list.
    Here's the code if you want to apply it:
    "Strict-Transport-Security" : "max-age=63072000; includeSubDomains; preload",
    */
      /*
    Permissions-Policy header provides the ability to allow or deny the use of browser features, such as opting out of FLoC - which you can use below:
    "Permissions-Policy": "interest-cohort=()",

    X-XSS-Protection header prevents a page from loading if an XSS attack is detected.
