[cors] Failed sharing check and cookies

Currently if a resource sharing check fails cookies will still be set for  
a credentialed request similarly to how they would be with <form> or  
<img>. However, it seems that HTML defines for <img crossorigin> that the  
UA must act as if there was no response at all. That does not work of  
course for the normal <img> case where the server could still opt in to  
sharing, but would work for XMLHttpRequest.

I think I will try to adopt that stricter behavior. Please speak up if you  
disagree.
