A cookie jar is initially an empty hash-reference that is managed by this
module. Its format is subject to change, but currently it is as follows:

The key C<version> has to contain C<2>, otherwise the hash gets
cleared. All other keys are hostnames or IP addresses pointing to
hash-references. The key for these inner hash references is the
server path for which this cookie is meant, and the values are again
hash-references. Each key of those hash-references is a cookie name, and
the value, you guessed it, is another hash-reference, this time with the
key-value pairs from the cookie, except for C<expires> and C<max-age>,
which have been replaced by a C<_expires> key that contains the cookie
expiry timestamp. Session cookies are indicated by not having an
C<_expires> key.

Here is an example of a cookie jar with a single cookie, so you have a
chance of understanding the above paragraph:

   {
      version    => 2,
