Research direction

Start with the uaac info output and the linked httpclient/webagent-cookie.rb code around line 202. Review upstream httpclient issues 415 and 376 to understand the handling of Max-Age and SameSite; the work is done when UAAC no longer reports these cookie attributes as unknown keys.
