Add option to allow the `allow_unsecured_rpc` option to be a hash of course ids, which can be set to 0 or 1 to disable cookies only for that course. Further, the course id could also be a hash of user ids that can be set to 0 or 1 to disable cookies only for the specified user id.

I think this is a good improvement. Even for PreTeXt's usage only a single user in a single course is needed. So this is even better for that situation, because now it is possible to allow the single user in the single course (usually the user anonymous in the course anonymous) to use the unsecured rpc, but other courses can be used securely on the same server.
