[Bug 761099] http: cookies sharing in the pipeline

[GStreamer (GNOME Bugzilla)]

The other alternative is to use the same cookiejar sharing context message but
let libraries share their own objects instead of having a central gstreamer
cookies repository. This is simpler to implement but has the downside of only
allowing elements that use the same http implementation to share cookies among
them. So if your pipeline would have different http implementations:

soup and neon, for example. Those elements would not be able to share cookies.

It is unusual to have different HTTP implementations on the same pipeline, but
it can happen when browsers (that have their own cookiejar) use gstreamer for
some multimedia task and need to share their cookies with gstreamer.
