The proxy sets the user-id cookie which is checked by RStudio to determine
whether the user is authenticated or not.
The value of this cookie is constructed in the auth.js module.
Read the code for the full implementation details and cookie format.
This cookie is signed so that RStudio can verify that the cookie was not tampered with.
