The server crashes (TypeError: response.header is not a function) when onPreResponse tries modifying headers on non-5xx Boom error objects (e.g., 404s).
This PR changes onPreResponse in index.ts to bypass header modifications for all Boom errors (response.isBoom), preventing calls to the non-existent .header() function on those error objects (see docs). This aligns with the code in the base repo's
index.ts
which also bypasses header modifications in the case of Boom objects.
