Hello! Nice to meet everyone!

Random question regarding the <https://ktor.io/docs/sessions.html|Sessions plugin>.

Is it possible to use this plugin to just simply store a JWT string in the cookie. I want to opt to not use Authorization headers for my use case.

So something like
```cookie&lt;String&gt;("SESSION") { ... }```
The documentation just alludes to always signing/transforming the cookie (as well as making a data class instead of using String), but my JWT is already encrypted.

Then I'm calling
```val accessToken = ...
call.sessions.set(accessToken)```
But the header response looks like
```Set-Cookie: SESSION=length%3D%2523i536; ...```
instead of what I wanted to expect as
```Set-Cookie: SESSION=eyJhbG.....```
Thanks! And if there's no easy solution, no big deal. I can just manually set the cookie header myself, just was curious if I could use the plugin just because its cleaner.

Oops: Just realized this isn't a KTOR specific channel. Please let me know if I should ask somewhere else, or go to KTOR github next! Thanks.

Oh thanks! I didn't realize there were more channels you can join, wasn't in the default I saw on the list

Will head over there!
