See https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/API:Login#Handle_cookies
There is also SULv2 documented at https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:CentralAuth#.22SUL2.22_behavior , but I dont think that is relevant for the API.

Fwiw, the Family variables cross_projects_cookies and cross_projects_cookie_username are not needed as-is, since CentralAuth has a paramter $wgCentralAuthCookiePrefix for the prefix and the suffix are all hardcoded.
So, only one variable, the prefix, needs to be defined per family. However we could use these existing variables to deduce the prefix, and deprecate the existing variables.

Two potential ways to dynamically get the list of all wikis in the SUL family, rendering cross_projects unnecessary):
- wikisets
- sitematrix

I think cross_projects implementation can be removed completely:
