An anonymous session is created when a unauthenticated user interacts with restricted operations,
such as calling the `activeOrder` query in the Shop API. Anonymous sessions allow a guest Customer
to maintain an order without requiring authentication and a registered account beforehand.

```ts title="Signature"
class AnonymousSession extends Session {
    constructor(input: DeepPartial<AnonymousSession>)
}
```
