Comment (by ayeshrajans):

 I'd love to see this move forward too. Even though we commit to a more
 recent WordPress version, it wouldn't be PHP 7.3 right away, so for BC, we
 will need a polyfill.

 I worked on a quite small scale polyfill (https://github.com/Ayesh
 /WordPress-
 SameSite/blob/50705de58a598c46f1ddd70faf6ccce59877b0cc/samesite.php#L172-L188)
 at just 16 lines and a single function. This function doesn't try to be a
 complete poyfill, but is a rather auth-cookie exclusive one.

 I'd be happy to roll a patch with this smaller polyfill or the `delight-im
 /PHP-Cookie` package.
