Description

#31933

SESSION_COOKIE_SAMESITE is documented (in Django 3.1) with the options 'Strict', 'Lax', 'None' and False. However, False means cookies will be sent without SameSite, which means some browsers (Chrome, Dolphin) will give it default such as 'Lax', which is different than what used to be in the past. I think this default should be documented in all active versions of Django. Maybe it's also better to add that using False is not recommended.
