Since this module already uses doctest-style examples, I figured I'd
add a self-test using doctest. Results:
- The docstring needs to be a raw string because it uses \"...\".
- The oreo example was broken: the Set-Cookie output doesn't add
quotes around "doublestuff".
- I had to change the example that prints the class of a Cookie.Cookie
instance to avoid incorporating an arbitrary object address in the
test output.
Pretty good score for both doctest and the doc string, I'd say!
