Changes to chrome://flags do not prompt for restart on iOS

Project Member Reported by elawrence@chromium.org, Jun 19 2017 
Chrome Version: 61.0.3134.0
OS: iOS 10.3.2

What steps will reproduce the problem?
(1) Visit chrome://flags
(2) Change a setting (e.g. mark-non-secure-as)

Expect: Prompt to restart like all other Chrome platforms

Result: No prompt.

This is not UI->Settings. It's Chrome native URLs. Should we add a component for this?

Most of chrome:// urls are WebUI

In the Desktop/Android version, there's a IsRestartNeededToCommitChanges() method.

I didn't see any equivalent code for iOS.

A prompt now exists.

Thanks, this was indeed fixed at some point before Chrome 66. The prompt doesn't actually allow the user to restart directly, but that's probably a limitation in the iOS platform.
