GHSA-3wfp-253j-5jxv: SSRF & Credentials Leak

### Summary `nuxt-api-party` allows developers to proxy requests to an API without exposing credentials to the client. [A previous vulnerability](https://huntr.dev/bounties/4c57a3f6-0d0e-4431-9494-4a1e7b062fbf/) allowed an attacker to change the baseURL of the request, potentially leading to credentials being leaked or SSRF. This vulnerability is similar, and was caused by a recent change to the detection of absolute URLs, which is no longer sufficient to prevent SSRF. ### Details `nuxt-api-party` attempts to check if the user has passed an absolute URL to prevent the aforementioned attack. This has been recently changed to [use a regular expression](https://github.com/johannschopplich/nuxt-api-party/blob/777462e1e3af1d9f8938aa33f230cd8cb6e0cc9a/src/runtime/server/handler.ts#L31) `^https?://`. This regular expression can be bypassed by an absolute URL with leading whitespace. For example `\nhttps://whatever.com` has a leading newline. According to the fetch specification, before...
