Make OPTIONS method on MSC3916 endpoints available without auth (#3431)
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
OPTIONS method is usually sent by browser in preflight requests, most of
the time we cannot control preflight request to add auth header.

Synapse will return a 204 response directly without authentication for
those OPTIONS method.

According to firefox's documentation, both 200 and 204 are acceptable so
I think there is no need to change handler in dendrite.

This closes #3424

No need to add a test because this is just a fix and I have tested on my
Cinny Web client personally.
