The short version is "you can't".

The longer version is "you can, but you have to configure it the
nginx way". Which means that in the final parsed nginx.conf, all the
add_header directives that you want to apply to a request are at the
same inheritance level.

You can "include" a file containing global ones wherever you set local
ones; or you can use a macro language to do that for you when creating
nginx.conf.
