Major release of Session plugins

written by Yuval Kogman

The core Session plugin, stores, and State::Cookie were updated for better semantics of expiry stuff.

The new scheme involves splitting expiry data into a different entry in the store, and making the system more resilient to race conditions due to the newly opened opportunity for lazy writing of the session data.

This means more reliability, and better performance.
