Some minor but helpful additions, like CookieOption. Relative: https://github.com/kataras/iris/issues/1018. Simple cookies example added too. Cookie encoding (side by side with the already session's cookie id encoding) and version upgrade will come tomorrow with a new HISTORY.md entry as well, stay tuned!
