Disk cache directory does not support multiple profiles

Project Member Reported by zmin@chromium.org, May 11 2016

Issue description

Version: 52.0.2730.0 (Build from source)
OS: Windows 8.1

What steps will reproduce the problem?
(1) Create multiple Chrome profiles. 
(2) Launch chrome with --disk-cache-dir flag.
(3) Switch to a different profile.
(4) Open random web page.

What is the expected output?
New cache files are created under $DiskCacheDir\Cache\ directory and also shown in the page: chrome://cache (expected.png)

What do you see instead?
No cache files are created and chrome://cache shows 'no disk cache'

Same thing happened when the directory path is overridden by group policy.

Indeed. Looks like the cache dir option was added a super long time ago ( issue 6688 ).
