[MD settings] use unfiltered embeddingOrigin in site exceptions

Project Member Reported by dschuyler@chromium.org, Jun 1 2017

Issue description

in chrome://settings/content/* (e.g. notifications)
If an exception has an embeddingOrigin it is filtered and obfuscated. I believe this was due to an earlier attempt to make these advanced features more user friendly. Altering (simplifying) the data is insufficient to make the feature simple and it breaks the advanced user's ability to clearly see the effects of the exceptions.

Suggestion: remove the displayEmbeddingOrigin and use the unfiltered embeddingOrigin directly.

Status: WontFix (was: Started)
The CL above grouped the generation of the secondary description line into one place, which is a good step forward code-wise. It didn't change the UI though.

In that CL msramek@ said, "I would still spell it out for the user, especially since we're already verbose with the Incognito part anyway."

So maybe the initial intent of this bug is a wontFix.

msramek@ went on to say, "Specifically, I'm convinced that saying
"embedded on" is better than no string, but I'm not sure if it's precise in all
cases." which could get further consideration. I'll make a separate bug for that topic.
