A Burp extension that filters out `OPTIONS` requests from populating Burp's Proxy history. This extension works by doing the following:

1. Force the `Content-Type` header value to `text/css; charset=UTF-8`.

2. Comment out the entire response body so Burp will not recognize the MIME type incorrectly.
