Added support for SameSite cookie option for CSRF prevention
This was an easy addon compared to the complexity of the CSRF nonce
support. It only works in chromium browsers (Chrome, Opera...) at
the moment. But there is recent activity on implementing it in
firefox. Who know when edge/ie will adopt it. So csrf nonce and
header analysis will be needed for a while.
