CookieJar.add_cookie_header(request)

Add correct Cookie header to request.

If policy allows (ie. the rfc2965 and hide_cookie2 attributes of the CookieJar‘s CookiePolicy instance are true and false respectively), the Cookie2 header is also added when appropriate.

The request object (usually a urllib.request..Request instance) must support the methods get_full_url(), get_host(), get_type(), unverifiable(), has_header(), get_header(), header_items(), add_unredirected_header() and origin_req_host attribute as documented by urllib.request.
