Hey folks,

This is a fairly small update. Copy/pasting from the -06 section of the
document:

   - Editorial fixes: https://github.com/httpwg/http-extensions/issues/1059,
   https://github.com/httpwg/http-extensions/issues/1158.
   - Created a registry for cookie attribute names:
   https://github.com/httpwg/http-extensions/pull/1060.
   - Tweaks to ABNF for "cookie-pair" and the "Cookie" header production:
   https://github.com/httpwg/http-extensions/issues/1074,
   https://github.com/httpwg/http-extensions/issues/1119.
   - Fixed serialization for nameless/valueless cookies:
   https://github.com/httpwg/http-extensions/pull/1143.
   - Converted a normative reference to Mozilla's Public Suffix List into
   an informative reference:
