Quantized window.performance.memory

Reported by victorse...@gmail.com, Jun 20 2017

Issue description

UserAgent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.3; Win64; x64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/59.0.3071.104 Safari/537.36

Steps to reproduce the problem:
1. Start chrome with --enable-precise-memory-info flag
2. Open a simple demo page that allocate memory (https://github.com/paulirish/memory-stats.js/blob/master/demo/index.html). At the beginning of test, used memory is 9MB and after some time it is updated to 40MB.

What is the expected behavior?
performance.memory metrics should not be quantized when using --enable-precise-memory-info

What went wrong?
performance.memory metrics are quantized.

Did this work before? N/A 

Chrome version: 59.0.3071.104  Channel: stable
OS Version: 6.3
Flash Version: 

--enable-precise-memory-info work on a recent build of Chromium (Version 61.0.3133.0 (Developer Build) (32-bit))

I can spot where this flag is _supposed_ to change the exposed values: https://cs.chromium.org/chromium/src/third_party/WebKit/Source/core/timing/MemoryInfo.cpp?type=cs&q=f:memoryinfo+precisememoryinfo

However, this implementation has been in a poor state of maintenance for a while and is now basically deprecated. See: https://bugs.chromium.org/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=326370#c41

Apologies for not resolving this bug before the new memory API is available, but.. only so many hours in a day.
