[jira] [Updated] (COUCHDB-1697) if-none-match header causes 500
internal server error on CORS requests

> Browsers can send a if-none-match header to couchdb, but this can will break when CORS is enabled. The reason seems to be the header comes in as a binary, eg from the debug log the header is:
> {'If-None-Match',"\"V9J3604P4V9VTR5H77SBHJW\""},
> When maybe_apply_cors_headers is called, the assumption is that the headers are strings. This can be seen here: https://github.com/apache/couchdb/blob/b0420f9006915149e81607615720f32f21c76725/src/couchdb/couch_httpd_cors.erl#L219
> Thus a string:to_lower is undefined as can be seen in this stacktrace:
> [info] [<0.148.0>] Stacktrace: [{string,to_lower,
> [undefined],
> [{file,"string.erl"},{line,468}]},
> {couch_httpd_cors,maybe_apply_cors_headers,2,
