Automatically restore session after crash

Project Member Reported by rpop@chromium.org, May 24 2016

Issue description

Finch experiment: after a browser crash, automatically restore the session instead of showing the session restore bubble.

Restoring the session means:
- Restore only frontmost tabs in each window, as well as restore any tabs that would have fallen under the memory pressure "do not discard" whitelist - streaming media, etc.
- All other tabs are recreated in the suspended state
- if restoring the session produces a crash, the next launch should NOT auto restore. It should show the bubble instead.

We should also record UMA for whether auto restore immediately caused a crash or not.
 
New idea: session restore whenever a chrome metrics crash occurs not in shutdown.

This logic should already exist as the thing that sets the stability report's incomplete_shutdown_count https://code.google.com/p/chromium/codesearch#chromium/src/components/metrics/proto/system_profile.proto&l=507
how do i enroll in this experiment? i want to restore only the tab from the visible window, not from all other windows, i have 20 windows. i want to restore only ONE tab at session restore!
