hapi Cookie authentication plugin

Cookie authentication provides a simple cookie-based session management. The user has to be authenticated via other means, typically a web form, and upon successful authentication, receive a reply with a session cookie. Subsequent requests containing the session cookie are authenticated (the cookie uses Iron to encrypt and sign the session content) and validated via the provided validateFunc in case the cookie's encrypted content requires validation on each request. Note that cookie operates as a bearer token and anyone in possession of the cookie content can use it to impersonate its true owner. The 'cookie' scheme takes the following required options:

cookie - the cookie name. Defaults to 'sid'.
password - used for Iron cookie encoding.
ttl - sets the cookie expires time in milliseconds. Defaults to single browser session (ends when browser closes).
domain - sets the cookie Domain value. Defaults to none.
path - sets the cookie path value. Defaults to /.
clearInvalid - if true, any authentication cookie that fails validation will be marked as expired in the response and cleared. Defaults to false.
keepAlive - if true, automatically sets the session cookie after validation to extend the current session for a new ttl duration. Defaults to false.
isSecure - if false, the cookie is allowed to be transmitted over insecure connections which exposes it to attacks. Defaults to true.
isHttpOnly - if false, the cookie will not include the 'HttpOnly' flag. Defaults to true.
redirectTo - optional login URI to redirect unauthenticated requests to. Note that using redirectTo with authentication mode 'try' will cause the protected endpoint to always redirect, voiding 'try' mode. To set an individual route to use or disable redirections, use the route plugins config ({ config: { plugins: { 'hapi-auth-cookie': { redirectTo: false } } } }). Defaults to no redirection.
appendNext - if true and redirectTo is true, appends the current request path to the query component of the redirectTo URI using the parameter name 'next'. Set to a string to use a different parameter name. Defaults to false.
redirectOnTry - if false and route authentication mode is 'try', authentication errors will not trigger a redirection. Requires hapi version 6.2.0 or newer. Defaults to true;
validateFunc - an optional session validation function used to validate the content of the session cookie on each request. Used to verify that the internal session state is still valid (e.g. user account still exists). The function has the signature function(request, session, callback) where:
- request - is the Hapi request object of the request which is being authenticated.
- session - is the session object set via request.auth.session.set().
- callback - a callback function with the signature function(err, isValid, credentials) where:
  - err - an internal error.
  - isValid - true if the content of the session is valid, otherwise false.
  - credentials - a credentials object passed back to the application in request.auth.credentials. If value is null or undefined, defaults to session. If set, will override the current cookie as if request.auth.session.set() was called.

When the cookie scheme is enabled on a route, the request.auth.session objects is decorated with the following methods:

set(session) - sets the current session. Must be called after a successful login to begin the session. session must be a non-null object, which is set on successful subsequent authentications in request.auth.credentials where:
- session - the session object.
set(key, value) - sets a specific object key on the current session (which must already exist) where:
- key - session key string.
- value - value to assign key.
clear([key]) - clears the current session or session key where:
- key - optional key string to remove a specific property of the session. If none provided, defaults to removing the entire session which is used to log the user out.
ttl(msecs) - sets the ttl of the current active session where:
- msecs - the new ttl in milliseconds.

Because this scheme decorates the request object with session-specific methods, it cannot be registered more than once.
