Closes #2104

This PR removes the requirement of checking the request's redirect chain during the computation of same-site-ness.

This is being done because RFC6265bis is blocked by this work but we have yet to find a way to implement it in a web compatible way. In the interest of moving RFC6265bis forward the requirement is being removed.

The work to re-add the requirement back into RFC6265tris is being track by issue #2751

Huh. I guess this obviates the comment I made in the previous PR.

It surprises me we didn't implement this. I though we did. :/

If it's the case that we didn't, and that no one else did, then yeah, removing LGTM.

Yeah, we did implement this - but we had to back it out (and re-spin stable, IIRC?) because it broke too many sites. :(

Correct, Chrome had to disable the change. Firefox had a similar experience.
