    Can not get correct userctx

    [Original issue](https://github.com/dscape/nano/issues/342)

    When I open the example.com/_session, it returns:
    ```javascript
    {"userCtx":{"roles":["_admin","_reader","_writer"],"name":"demeter"},"ok":true,"info":{"authentication_db":"_users","authentication_handlers":["delegated","cookie","default","local"],"authenticated":"cookie"}}
    ```
    But when I use the following code:
    ```shell
    err, body, headers <- nano.auth user.name, user.password
    console.log "err", err
    console.log "body: "
    console.log body
    console.log "headers..."
    console.log headers
    ```
    body returns
    ```javascript
    {"roles":[],"ok":true,"name":"demeter"}
    ```
    Which is not correct.
    
    *Edit*
    
    Following bash script also returns same response with nano:
    
    ```shell
    #!/bin/bash
    HOST=https://example.com
    
    curl -vX POST $HOST/_session \
        -H 'Content-Type:application/x-www-form-urlencoded' \
        -H 'Content-Type:application/json' \
        -d 'name=myuser&password=mypassword'
    ```
    So the problem might not be related with nano itself, it might be a setup issue.

    However, following code gets the same correct userCtx with the browser:
    ```javascript
    require! \nano
    conn = nano cfg.url
    
    err, body, headers <- conn.auth cfg.user.name, cfg.user.password
    return console.log "err", err if err
    
    if headers and headers.\set-cookie
        cfg.cookie = headers.\set-cookie
    else
        return console.error "We got no cookie?", headers
    
    sconn = nano do
        url: cfg.url
        cookie: cfg.cookie
    
    err, session <- sconn.session
    return console.error "Err: ", err if err
    
    console.log 'Session is: ', session 
    ```
