Previously, there was a single global cookie jar shared between all web pages.
Now, one can have separate cookie jars for different web pages.
Makes CookieJar a normal class, not a singleton.
Moves many public CookieJar methods to public slots.
Adds default cookie jar to Phantom.
Adds the CookieJar module that provides access to cookie jars in javascript.
Adds cookie jar module tests.
Usage:
var jar = require('cookiejar').create();
var webpage = require('webpage').create();
webpage.cookieJar = jar;
...
webpage.close();
jar.close();
JS API changes:
Webpage:
var jar = page.cookieJar; -- assigns 'jar' the given webpage's cookie jar.
page.cookiejar = jar; -- sets 'jar' as the given webpage's cookie jar.
CookieJar:
var jar = require('cookiejar').create(path)
creates a cookie jar with persistent storage at the given file path
(path not mandatory).
var cookies = jar.cookies; -- assign's 'jar' the list of cookies in the
cookie jar.
jar.cookies = [c1, c2]; -- sets the cookie jar's cookies as the ones in the
list.
jar.addCookie(cookie) -- adds cookie 'cookie' to the cookie jar.

Addresses [Issue #761](http://code.google.com/p/phantomjs/issues/detail?id=761).
This is a combination of 5 commits.
1. Date in Cookie can be set via "seconds since epoch" as well.
* In addition to the current string format, we can now set cookies via integer of msec since epoch
* Expiration date can be set via "expires" or "expiry" option ("expires" has priority)
* Returned cookie will contain "expires" as string and "expiry" as msec since epoch
I believe this can simplify code that uses cookies and it doesn't change the functionality.
2. Applying the "--debug" command line options as early as possible.
3. Fixing bug and behaviour in the CookieJar
* It's not possible to set a cookie without a domain: will default to the domain of the page it's set on
* "page.clearCookies()" was broken
* "cookiejar.deleteCookie("name", url)" reimplemented because deleting via "expiration" doesn't work
4. Improving (and more fixing) in the CookieJar
* Purging Session or Expired Cookies now works
* Added boolean return values to inform if the requested cookie operation succeeded
* Timestamps for "expiry/expires" in Milliseconds, as JS does by default
* Improved detection that a cookie has been accepted or rejected by the cookiejar
NOTE: Unfortunately, the Qt provided QNetworkCookieJar is a very limited
and not extremely well designed solution. It doesn't provide any "nice
and clean" CRUD API, and you are only left with a SET/GET to deal with.
Mechanism to understand when and when not a cookie is added are hidden,
and require extra work in the sub-class (our CookieJar) to fill the gap.
5. Methods on the "phantom" object to manipulate the CookieJar.
* phantom.cookies (array of JSON/Cookies)
* phantom.cookiesEnabled (boolean)
* phantom.addCookie
* phantom.deleteCookie
* phantom.clearCookies
Those methods operate on the CookieJar directly and have no URL restriction.
In other words, if page P1 can see set of cookies C1, and page P2 can see set of
cookies C2, "phantom.cookies" can see (i.e. operate upon) both C1 and C2.
Addresses [Issue #761](http://code.google.com/p/phantomjs/issues/detail?id=761).
This is a squash of 5 commits.
1. Complete reimplementation of the CookieJar and the Cookie API - Part 1.
The save/load mechanism is inspired by the Qt Demo "browser".
More info: http://doc.qt.nokia.com/4.7-snapshot/demos-browser.html
2. Making the CookieJar a singleton.
We need to have multiple NetworkAccessManager to monitor the network activity of the page,
but we also need to maintain 1 CookieJar: in this way we now have a shared bucket of Cookies.
3. Exposing the new Cookies API to the JS space.
* Updated the completions.
* Ensured backward compatibility of the API.
* It's now possible to "phantom.cookieEnabled = false" to disable cookies completely.
* New methods: addCookie, deleteCookie, clearCookies
4. Provided some internal Doc for the new Cookies API
5. Ensuring the "page.deleteCookie(name)" method works only if a cookie name is given.
