How to clear all cookies programmatically? Not only those you explicitly set yourself in your app with `res.cookie(...), but also those ones that third-party services set themselves, like FB during login with FB. Is it possible at all? This is for the sake of testing, to clear all cookies, that is reset the state in order to start a test again.
