Feature Request: Add expires shortcuts?

See original GitHub issue

carhartl/jquery-cookie and js-cookie both provided a shortcut to expiration. If you provided expires: <Number>, then it would assume an expiration of days. Would you be agreeable to this sort of feature in ember-cookies?

We could also enhance this significantly by supporting a String value specifying a duration and units. Maybe use the same characters as date formatting to specify units? ex: '3d' or 50M for 3 days or 50 minutes respectively

Thanks for the addon! Loving it and killing off a jquery plugin and bower dependency!

Hey, @justinaray we have maxAge option, which takes a time in seconds, so I’ve documented that on the Readme. Does that work as an alternative to overloading expires?

Thanks @geekygrappler and @marcoow. Max-Age will work for our use case, seems to have pretty good browser support, and MDN says it will be preferred over Expires if both are set and supported.
