desktopCapture extension: Multiple sharing of tabs/windows possible

Project Member Reported by srnarayanan@chromium.org, Apr 13 2016

Issue description

Version: Chrome M51 51.0.2704.2
OS: Linux 14.04, Windows 7

What steps will reproduce the problem?

Precondition: Have multiple Chrome tabs and windows open

(1) Download the desktopCapture extension from https://drive.google.com/a/google.com/folderview?id=0B__Tc1GKZkEXNEp3bWVxZ0hFaWs&usp=sharing_eid&ts=570ec782
(2) In chrome://extensions, click developer mode and click button 'Load Unpacked Extensions'
(3) Launch the "Desktop Capture Example" extension
(4) Click "Start"
(5) Select "Entire screen" and Share
(6) Verify that the Entire screen is indeed shared
(7) Now, without clicking "Stop sharing" in the overlay dialog at the bottom of the page, click Start again in the desktop capture example dialog
(8) Select a tab/window and Share
(9) Verify that now you see 2 overlay text dialogs - one for entire screen and one for tab/window
Screenshot attached


What is the expected output?
1. At any given time, either entire screen/tab/window can be shared
2. Even if the user attempts to share multiple tabs (for instance), earlier sharing attempts should be canceled 

What do you see instead?
multiple sharing of tabs/windows at the same time

Please use labels and text to provide additional information.

gyzhou@ - do you think this is an issue with the desktopCapture extension, or is it an issue with the screenshare code in Chrome itself? 

In any case, I'm setting this to available since this doesn't sound like a regression in M51; or at least that's how I'm interpreting comment #2.

This should be an issue of desktopcapture extension instead of chrome. The extension should release the stream when it doesn't need the stream anymore. I guess chrome.desktopCapture.cancelChooseDesktopMedia() should be for this purpose but it doesn't work.

Updating summary and removing milestone label per #4. However, because this impacts testing, I'm increasing the priority from P3 to P2.
