Add option to execute OPTIONS request for a link about hal-explorer

[toedter]

yes, there is also a menu entry that you can select in the Settings menu.

That sounds like a good idea, I'll take a look at it.

My current assumption for HAL-FORMS was that all the links are GET only, while _templates are used for all affordances that define a specific HTTP method. On the other hand, a link in HAL-FORMS could be anything, so it would also make sense to use options for HAL-FORMS links.

It is implemented in the current snapshot. You can test it:
For HAL: Chatty API (Spring Data REST Backend): https://chatty42.herokuapp.com/hal-explorer/index.html#theme=Cosmo&httpOptions=true&uri=/api/
For HAL-FORMS: Movies API (Spring HATEOAS Backend): https://hypermedia-movies-demo.herokuapp.com/hal-explorer/index.html#theme=Cosmo&httpOptions=true&uri=https://hypermedia-movies-demo.herokuapp.com/api/movies

So it is activated by httpOptions=true in the URL?
