Parse an HTTP Cookie header string and return an object of all cookie name-value pairs.
Use `String.prototype.split(';')` to separate key-value pairs from each other.
Use `Array.prototype.map()` and `String.prototype.split('=')` to separate keys from values in each pair.
Use `Array.prototype.reduce()` and `decodeURIComponent()` to create an object with all key-value pairs.
```js
const parseCookie = str =>
str
.split(';')
.map(v => v.split('='))
.reduce((acc, v) => {
acc[decodeURIComponent(v[0].trim())] = decodeURIComponent(v[1].trim());
return acc;
}, {});
```
```js
parseCookie('foo=bar; equation=E%3Dmc%5E2'); // { foo: 'bar', equation: 'E=mc^2' }
```
