url-cookie.el: Minor patch for handling trusted sites:

[T. V. Raman]

Here is a minor patch to url-cookie.el:

Description: Package url provides a user settable option
url-cookie-trusted-urls that specifies a list of trusted sites.

The function that is supposed to use this ---
url-cookie-handle-set-cookie  computes the "trustability" of a
set cookie action, but then omits to use what it computed.

This patch adds a check for that test.

diff url-cookie.el.orig  url-cookie.el
452c452,453
<      ((url-cookie-host-can-set-p (url-host url-current-object) domain)
---
>      ((or trusted
>           (url-cookie-host-can-set-p (url-host url-current-object) domain))
06:10:33 labrador url $ 


While in the neighborhood, could someone also look at function
url-cookie-host-can-set-p -- the test in that function for
checking whether a host is within a particular domain didn't make
much sense to me. 
 Thanks,

It DOES use the result of matching url-cookie-trusted-urls, in that it
overrides a possible match for url-cookie-untrusted-urls.

I am not sure that the behavior is wrong.  I think we should not
change this now.  However, would someone who understands the URL
package please DTRT for after the release?
