> cookie_authentication_handler does not throw if the cookie is invalid or has
> expired, instead it delegates to the next handler.
> This leads to ugly results like getting a response from /_session but with no
> userCtx filled in.
> cookie_authentication_handler should throw if, and only if, there's an
> AuthSession cookie that is expired or invalid. We shouldn't attempt to try
> other auth schemes. If there is no such cookie, then we delegate.
