Conditionally enable double key logic according to:
private browsing mode or privacy.thirdparty.isolate preference and
implement in GetCookieStringCommon and FindCookie where it counts...
With some reservations of how to convince FindCookie users to test
condition and pass a nullptr when disabling double key logic.

28 .SH DESCRIPTION
29 .B makeconv
30 converts the ICU converter table
31 .I convertertable
32 into a binary file. The binary file has the same base name as
33 .I convertertable
34 but has a
35 .B .cnv
36 extension (instead of the typical
37 .B .ucm
38 extension of the
39 .I convertertable
40 file).
41 This binary file can then be read directly by ICU, or used by
42 .BR pkgdata (1)
43 for incorporation into a larger archive or library.
44 .PP
45 The
46 .I convertertable
47 must be in the ICU ucm (Unicode Codepage Mapping) format in order to
48 be understood by
49 .BR makeconv .
50 The ICU ucm format is similar to the IBM NLTC upmap/tpmap/rpmap files.
51 Comments in the
52 .I convertable
53 are handled as follows. If a comment (starting with a `#' sign) that
54 is after some text does contain the fallback indicator `|' then only
55 the text starting with the `#' sign, and ending before the `|' sign,
56 is ignored.
57 Otherwise, or if the comment is the first thing on the line,
58 the comment runs up to the end of the line. This special
59 handling of comments is to accomodate the practice of putting fallback
60 information in comments in the strict IBM NLTC ucmap format.
61 .PP
62 Note that new converters will be automatically found by ICU after their
63 installation in ICU's data directory. They do not need to
64 be listed in the
65 .BR convrtrs.txt (5)
66 converters aliases file in order to be available to applications using ICU.
67 They do need to be listed there if one wants to give them aliases, or
68 tags, though.
69 .SH OPTIONS
70 .TP
71 .BR "\-h\fP, \fB\-?\fP, \fB\-\-help"
72 Print help about usage and exit.
73 .TP
74 .BR "\-c\fP, \fB\-\-copyright"
75 Include a copyright notice in the binary data.
76 .TP
77 .BR "\-v\fP, \fB\-\-verbose"
78 Display extra informative messages during execution.
79 .TP
80 .BI "\-d\fP, \fB\-\-destdir" " destination"
81 Set the destination directory to
82 .IR destination .
83 The default destination directory is specified by the environment variable
84 .BR ICU_DATA .
85 .SH CAVEATS
86 If an existing converter table is changed and recompiled using
87 .BR makeconv ,
88 the resulting binary file must be packaged in the same way that it was
89 packaged initially. For example, if converters were grouped together in
90 an archive or a library with
91 .BR pkgdata (1),
92 then the archive or library must be rebuilt with the new binary file.
93 A standalone binary converter file will not take precedence over a
94 packaged one.
95 .SH ENVIRONMENT
96 .TP 10
97 .B ICU_DATA
98 Specifies the directory containing ICU data. Defaults to
99 .BR @thepkgicudatadir@/@PACKAGE@/@VERSION@/ .
100 Some tools in ICU depend on the presence of the trailing slash. It is thus
101 important to make sure that it is present if
102 .B ICU_DATA
103 is set.
