[manifest] Obtaining a Manifest should follow usual CORS rules with credentials. (#353)

Requesting to be same-origin with the document doesn't sound needed. If the Manifest is in another origin and it has some Access Controls set allowing it to be used, I think it should be fine to allow it to be used.

In the wild, we've seen a few websites adding there Manifest to cross origins places (like G+ using gstatic).
