cookies: don't read cookie files from ancient browsers
Remove the code that attempted to read cookie files from well-known
browser locations. This code was written for ancient browsers, and only
knew about Mozilla and Netscape. While it's possible that these browsers
are still alive and still use the same config locations and cookie file
formats, the only Mozilla-based browser that still matters is Firefox.
Firefox uses a sqlite database for cookies, located in a slightly
different config path.
Just remove this code.
