Re: [storage] Classify cookies as site storage (#8)

* Quota: Chrome doesn't currently count cookies in quota calculations either. But we should.
* Persistence: I assume you mean because cookies have expiration times. If so, unclear. But we could say if an origin's default box is persistent then any cookies it can access are also persistent. Where persistent means the browser won't clear them without user intervention, unless they expire.
* Site vs origin: As mentioned above, we could say that any cookie accessible to an origin is treated as persistent if the origin's default box is persistent.
* HTTP cache entries: from the perspective of script logic, it is like first run, except the page might load a bit faster.

These are hairy issues but I'm sure we can tackle them to make devs' jobs easier.
