Fix issue with the timing of setting cookies in the browser

[chrisbreiding]

Currently, if a cross-origin request sets a cookie and the app attempts to read the cookie via document.cookie synchronously on page load, the document.cookie value will not be correct / up-to-date.

Spec:

it('document.cookie includes cookie set by http request', () => {
  cy.get('[data-cy="cookie-login-land-on-document-cookie"]').click()
  cy.origin('http://foobar.com:3500', { args: { username } }, ({ username }) => {
    cy.get('[data-cy="username"]').type(username)
    cy.get('[data-cy="login"]').click()
  })

  cy.origin('http://idp.com:3500', { args: { username } }, ({ username }) => {
    cy.get('[data-cy="document-cookie"]').invoke('text')
    .should('include', `user=${username}`)
  })
})

App:

<p>
  <strong>document.cookie:</strong>
  <span data-cy="document-cookie"></span>
</p>
<script>
  document.querySelector('[data-cy="document-cookie"]').textContent = document.cookie;
</script>

I believe this is likely the cause of #23565 as I am seeing the same behavior as the OP in that issue and it appears that it is due to the client side app not being able to read a cookie that was set on page load during a sequence of redirects/XHR requests that makeup the login process of the underlying app.

I rolled back to 10.2 and my test started working again.

Not sure how helpful this is, but my particular test is good to go up to 10.3.

When run from 10.3.1 my test fails in a unique way unlike 10.4+
When run from 10.4+ my test fails as described in #23565

Let me know if any more detail would be helpful, I'll do the best I can.

The code for this is done in cypress-io/cypress#23643, but has yet to be released.
We'll update this issue and reference the changelog when it's released.
