This PR allows two things. One is to control session "start on demand" and the other is to emulate PHP's session behaviour in that `$_SESSION` is `null` but you could read/write to it anyway before a session is started. This is emulated by allowing the session to return bags when the session is not started and which may be overwritten when the session starts.
