Per-origin Media Device IDs are persisted even if storing cookies is disabled

Project Member Reported by guidou@chromium.org, May 26 2016

Issue description

The spec recommends "to treat the per-origin persistent identifier deviceId as other persistent storages (e.g. cookies) are treated."

From this, it follows that if storing cookies is disabled, storing per-origin device IDs should be disabled too. More accurately, the random salt used to generate the IDs should not be persisted if the user has not given permission to store cookies.

Merging into webrtc:5967 which covers other cases where Chromium deviates from the spec.
