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

The big issue with cookies is that they aren't origin-scoped. That is, `subdomain.example.com` has distinct localstorage with `other.example.com`, but shares `.example.com` cookies. It's not clear that there's a good way to model that in an origin-based system.

`Clear-Site-Data` currently says something like what you're suggesting, @davidsgrogan, in https://w3c.github.io/webappsec/specs/clear-site-data/#clear-cookies. It's not really clear to me whether that's the right answer, but it's at least internally consistent.
