Hi, I have recently updated consul from 1.8 to 1.16 and i see some behavior change in the KV get raw data http api. While searching i found this:[HCSEC-2021-07 - Consul API KV Endpoint Vulnerable to Cross-Site Scripting](https://discuss.hashicorp.com/t/hcsec-2021-07-consul-api-kv-endpoint-vulnerable-to-cross-site-scripting/23368), so is there a way to preserve the old behavior? i know it is security risk but some of the clients are using that api and breaking the stuff. until we fix all the clients wanted to see if is there a option to preserve the old behavior on fetching raw value on KV data.
