/*
This module provides easy access to the CSRF token and caches
it for re-use. It also exposes some values commonly used in relation
to the CSRF token (header key and headers object).

If you need to refresh the csrfToken for some reason, just call `init` and
then use the accessors as you would normally.

If you need to compose a headers object, use the spread operator:

```
  headers: {
    ...csrf.headers,
    someOtherHeader: '12345',
  }
```
