/**
 * Middleware function that handles CORS configuration for API routes.
 *
 * This middleware function is responsible for setting the appropriate CORS headers
 * on the response, based on the configured CORS options. It checks the origin of
 * the request and sets the `Access-Control-Allow-Origin` header accordingly. It
 * also sets the other CORS-related headers, such as `Access-Control-Allow-Credentials`,
 * `Access-Control-Allow-Methods`, `Access-Control-Allow-Headers`, and
 * `Access-Control-Expose-Headers`.
 *
 * The middleware function is configured to be applied to all API routes, as defined
 * by the `config` object at the end of the file.
