Research direction

Locate the SetCookie definition and inspect the private inner field that prevents construction by crate users. Confirm the intended public construction path from the surrounding API, then verify that users can construct SetCookie without accessing a private field.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

The inner field of SetCookie is private, so it can't be constructed by the users of the crate.
