Origin validation

Each webhook call will include a header so that it can be validated that Builfirst is the source of the request.

The header is "Builtfirst-Webhook-Signature-SHA256" and the value will be a hash of the request body signed with a secret key that can be found on the webhook configuration page.

Example of Node implementation to validate the signature:

const crypto = require('crypto')

const body = `raw json sent by Builtfirst`
const secret = '';
const hash = crypto.createHmac('sha256', secret)
.update(body)
.digest('hex');

The "hash" variable value should be equal to "Builtfirst-Webhook-Signature-SHA256"
