-----------------------------------------------

Custom AuthenticationStrategy that also evicts the cookie / updates the cookie 
store associated with the current HttpContext.

> Using HttpClient 4.3.2 to call a Web Service which is secured with BASIC 
> authentication. The server responds to the initial request with a 401 
> response but also includes a cookie.
> The HttpClient does not place response cookies into the cookie store until 
> after it has completed the subsequent request with the Authorize header, but 
> the server rejects the authentication if the cookie is missing. 
> To work around this I had to disable the authentication capability in the 
> HttpClientContext and manually check for the 401 response code, and then send 
> a followup request with a manually set Authorize header.
> So in the use case where the HttpClient is automatically sending a followup 
> request with credentials in response to a 401, the client should place the 
> cookies from the original response into the cookie store immediately, rather 
> than waiting for after the response to the credentials (the 2nd response).
