Chrome no longer supports Intent.ACTION_CREATE_SHORTCUT

Reported by lquinn@blackberry.com, Mar 18 2016

Issue description

Device name: PRIV by BlackBerry

From "Settings > About Chrome"
Application version: Chrome 49.0.2623.91
OS: Android 6.0.1; STV100-5 Build/MMB29M

Steps to reproduce:
The following code returns no entries when queried against Chrome 49:

        Intent queryIntent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_CREATE_SHORTCUT);
        List<ResolveInfo> candidates = mPackageManager.queryIntentActivities(queryIntent, PackageManager.GET_RESOLVED_FILTER);


Expected result:
In Chrome 48 and earlier, there were two entries: one for viewing bookmarks, one for visiting a bookmark.

Actual result:
No entries in Chrome 49.
