Tab discarding not working on macOS.

Project Member Reported by erikc...@chromium.org, Apr 24 2017

Issue description

rkaplan@ has many tabs open, and the system is in critical memory pressure, but it looks like none of those tabs are being discarded. This sounds to me like tab discarding isn't working properly. Please reach out to rkaplan@ directly to obtain traces/screenshots - they don't want to attach them to this crbug.

Perhaps which should be a separate bug, but:

Is tab discarding supposed to work for incognito tabs?

I'm finding that it does not. 

Steps to reproduce: 
- open a new tab
- go to chrome://discards and click on "discard" link for an incognito tab.
- chrome://discards tab is replaced with a message saying "Discarding a tab..." 
- upon re-rendering the chrome://discards tab, the usual [Discarded] indicator is not shown next to the incognito tab, and the incognito tab doesn't seem to need a refresh when I bring it forward.
