Clear Download section prefs on "Downloads history" removal.

Project Member Reported by vitaliii@chromium.org, Nov 17 2016

Issue description

As of today, there is no "Downloads history" option in Clear Browsing Data dialogue. However, it should appear there and we have to remove dismissed items when it is triggered.
The event is BrowsingDataRemover::RemoveDataMask::REMOVE_DOWNLOADS.

 
If they decide not to add the option, then this can be removed.

So the event for that already exists? Are you sure that it doesn't get triggered somewhere else?
> So the event for that already exists?
I believe the event exists, because the code is shared with the desktop. On the desktop, there is such option in Clear Browsing Data dialogue.

No, I am not, but I believe that then we would be told about this during the privacy review. However, only Clear Browsing Data dialogue was mentioned.

I see. Ok, on desktop it makes sense. Because there is indeed a downloads history (even if the user deletes the downloaded file via the filesystem, Chrome still remembers the download).
Since such a thing doesn't exist on Android, I'd say we stick to the YAGNI principle and close this bug. :-) SG?

SGTM. Moreover, we clear this on Browser History removal.
In case they add the option, we will reopen this bug.
