Too easy to confirm "Remove Android apps" with MD settings page

Project Member Reported by jhorwich@chromium.org, Mar 15 2017

Issue description

Chrome Version: 59.0.3040.0
OS: 9370.0

What steps will reproduce the problem?
(precondition: Google Play Store already enabled for the signed-in user)
(1) Open chrome://settings
(2) Tap (drag?) slider to disable "Enable Google Play Store on your Chromebook"
(3) (accidentally) tap "Confirm" button that appears right near where slider was

In one sense, we are doing what the user asked (assuming the second click isn't an accident of course). However, given the combination of:

- ease of doing this accidentally, particularly with touchscreen taps
- inability to fully undo this as removing the apps also removes associated internal app data.

IMO, we should make the bar a bit higher than "accidentally clicked right near the first think I clicked accidentally" for performing such a destructive action.

I recall the non-MD settings page used a checkbox on the left side of the page, so it was a lot less likely to have the "confirm" button close to the touch target for the checkbox - I had to really shrink the browser window to make the confirm button close to the checkbox. Also, the non-MD settings page had the checkbox away from other targets - the MD page has "Learn more" link right next to the on/off slider.
