    net/http: document how Request.Cookie deals with duplicate cookies · a09e1de0
    Joe Tsai authored
    RFC 6265, section 4.2.2 says:
    <<<
    Although cookies are serialized linearly in the Cookie header,
    servers SHOULD NOT rely upon the serialization order.  In particular,
    if the Cookie header contains two cookies with the same name (e.g.,
    that were set with different Path or Domain attributes), servers
    SHOULD NOT rely upon the order in which these cookies appear in the
    header.
    >>>
    
    This statement seems to indicate that cookies should conceptually
    be thought of as a map of keys to sets of values (map[key][]value).
    However, in practice, everyone pretty much treats cookies as a
    map[key]value and the API for Request.Cookie seems to indicate that.
    
    We should update the documentation for Request.Cookie to warn the
    user what happens when there is are multiple cookies with the same
    key. I deliberately did not want to say *which* cookie is returned.
