Allow separate profiles and incognito tabs to be treated like anh other tab, ie. not require a separate window

Reported by harald.r...@gmail.com, Jan 1 2017

Issue description

UserAgent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Ubuntu Chromium/55.0.2883.87 Chrome/55.0.2883.87 Safari/537.36

Steps to reproduce the problem:
Use multiple browser profiles or open an incognito window to create a separate cookie space
- CHrome requires separate windows forcing you to use a dozen or so separate windows

What is the expected behavior?
The ability to group tabs into windows according to their use, not forcing a new cookie space to be in a separate window

What went wrong?
Google didn’t think of that. Its an aha moment for what users really want.

Did this work before? N/A 

Chrome version: 55.0.2883.87  Channel: stable
OS Version: 
Flash Version: 

Chromium rocks

With the introduction of profiles, that did not previously exist, it is a better architecture to associate cookie data and possibly other things with profiles rather than windows.

A tab belongs to a profile and may be incognito, relationships that stays the same as the tab is moved between windows to create desired groupings.
