* Create a cookie with the given name and value,

* @example
* setCookie('foo', 'bar'); // will be deleted when browser exits

* setCookie('foo', 'bar', { expires: 7 }); // 7 days = 1 week
* setCookie('foo', 'bar', { expires: 14, path: '/' });
*
* @param {String} sName: Unique name of a cookie (letters, numbers, underscores).
* @param {String} sValue: The string value stored in a cookie.
* @param {Object} [options] An object literal containing key/value pairs
* to provide optional cookie attributes.
* @param {String|Number|Date} [options.expires] Either literal string to be used as cookie expires,
* or an integer specifying the expiration date from now on in days,
* or a Date object to be used as cookie expiration date.
* If a negative value is specified or a date in the past),
* the cookie will be deleted.
* If set to null or omitted, the cookie will be a session cookie
* and will not be retained when the browser exits.
* @param {String} [options.path] Restrict access of a cookie to particular directory
* (default: path of page that created the cookie).
* @param {String} [options.domain] Override what web sites are allowed to access cookie
* (default: domain of page that created the cookie).
* @param {Boolean} [options.secure] If true, the secure attribute of the cookie will be set
* and the cookie would be accessible only from secure sites
* (cookie transmission will require secure protocol like HTTPS).
