Summary

Fixes T3471. Specific issues:

  • Add the ability to set a temporary cookie (expires when the browser closes).
  • We overwrote 'phcid' on every page load. This creates some issues with browser extensions. Instead, only write it if isn't set. To counterbalance this, make it temporary.
  • Make the 'next_uri' cookie temporary.
  • Make the 'phreg' cookie temporary.
  • Fix an issue where deleted cookies would persist after 302 (?) in some cases (this is/was 100% for me locally).
Test Plan
  • Closed my browser, reopned it, verified temporary cookies were gone.
  • Logged in, authed, linked, logged out.

First I can't have $_GET / $_POST parameters called 'code', and now I can't have $_COOKIE values of 'deleted' ?

Yeah, this technically burns users with the username deleted, since it won't prefill in the "Username: ..." field anymore.

We could put some kind of escaping on that cookie if anyone ever complains.
