rOMWCfa8162eff032: wikitech: Remove $wgCookieDomain override changed the cookie domain for Wikitech and that means some users are now stuck with session cookies for both wikitech.wikimedia.org and .wikitech.wikimedia.org. We'll have to do a hook hack similar to rOMWCd2adfe5c30f8: CentralAuth: Fix wikisource.org cookie handling.

Stuck cookies are cleared now. I didn't have a real session to test with, so I recreated the stuck cookies manually, which is somewhat fragile - if you are logged into Wikitech but haven't visited it in a few days, please check that it works for you. But for now I'm assuming this is fixed.
