Chrome should not offer to save passwords if it cannot do so

Project Member Reported by vabr@chromium.org, Jul 1 2016

Issue description

(1) When Chrome is closed, lock the Keychain.
(2) Start Chrome, refuse to unlock the Keychain.
(3) Try to save a password at https://rsolomakhin.github.io/autofill .

Expected: Chrome should know the locked Keychain prevented it from working and not offer to save the password.

Actual: Chrome offers the user to save the password, but then cannot deliver, because the Keychain is locked, and hence fails silently.

Given the current state of password management, I'm guessing this is a WontFix.
Assigning to cfroussios@ who seems to be working in this area at the moment.
