[issue3924] cookielib chokes on non-integer cookie version, should ignore it instead

[John J Lee]

John J Lee <jjlee at users.sourceforge.net> added the comment:

The sensible fix for this is to strip the quotes off, defaulting to
version 0 on failure to parse the version cookie-attribute.  It's not
necessary to retain the original version string.

By the way, what you posted warning rather than a strictly unhandled
exception or "crash" -- it's a bug, but won't cause the program to stop.
 And by "none of the cookies work after that", you mean that no cookies
in headers containing the quoted version cookie-attribute are accepted
by the cookiejar.

FWIW, this bug only affects RFC 2109 cookies, not RFC 2965 cookies.
