docs: lots of minor language polish
Mostly based on recent language decisions from "everything curl":

- remove contractions (isn't => is not)
- *an* HTTP (consistency)
- runtime (no hyphen)
- backend (no hyphen)
- URL is uppercase

docs: update IETF links to use datatracker
The tools.ietf.org domain has been deprecated a while now, with the
links being redirected to datatracker.ietf.org.

Rather than make people eat that redirect time, this change switches the
URL to a more canonical source.

HTTP-COOKIES: mention that a trailing newline is required
... so that we know we got the whole and not a partial line.

Also, changed the formatting of the fields away from a table again since
the table format requires a github-markdown tool version that we don't
run on the web server atm.

The draft-ietf-httpbis-rfc6265bis-02 draft, specify a set of prefixes
and how they should affect cookie initialization, which has been
adopted by the major browsers. This adds support for the two prefixes
defined, __Host- and __Secure, and updates the testcase with the
supplied examples from the draft.

7a09b52c98 cookies: leave secure cookies alone
Only allow secure origins to be able to write cookies with the
'secure' flag set. This reduces the risk of non-secure origins
to influence the state of secure origins. This implements IETF
Internet-Draft draft-ietf-httpbis-cookie-alone-01 which updates
RFC6265.
