Muhsin Keloth a4c3d3d8c0 feat(widget): Allow widget loading in mobile app WebViews when domain restrictions are set (#13763)
When `allowed_domains` is configured on a web widget inbox, the server
responds with Content-Security-Policy: frame-ancestors <domains>, which
blocks the widget iframe in mobile app WebViews. This happens because
WebViews load content from file:// or null origins, which cannot match
any domain in the frame-ancestors directive.

This adds a per-inbox toggle — "Enable widget in mobile apps" — that
skips the frame-ancestors header when the request has no valid Origin
(i.e., it comes from a mobile WebView). Web browsers with a real origin
still get domain restrictions enforced as usual.

How to test

1. Go to Settings → Inboxes → (Web Widget) → Configuration
2. Set allowed_domains to a specific domain (e.g., *.example.com)
3. Try loading the widget in a mobile app WebView — it should be blocked
4. Enable "Enable widget in mobile apps" checkbox
5. Reload the widget in the WebView — it should now load successfully
6. Verify the widget on a website not in the allowed domains list is
still blocked
