Clicking "restore settings" resets to previous new tab page instead of the default new tab page.

Project Member Reported by sdantul...@chromium.org, Jul 26 2017

Issue description

Google Chrome	61.0.3163.11 (Official Build) dev (64-bit)
Revision	0
Platform	9765.5.0 (Official Build) dev-channel caroline


What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Add an extension (A) that overrides the default new tab page
2. Open new tab page. See the prompt that says "Is this the new tab page you were expecting"
3. Add another new tab extension (B)
4. Open new tab and see prompt as in step 2
5. Click on "Restore settings" button.

What is the expected result?
Clicking "restore settings" should disable the extension (B) and reset the default new tab page.

What happens instead?
Shows the previous new tab extension page (A) instead of default

+Devlin to keep me honest, but I think this is by design. 

I know the dialogue button says "restore settings" which kind of suggests that default settings will be restored, but the string above it actually states, "If you didn't want these changes, you can restore your *previous* settings."

Hey Devlin, can you confirm whether or not this is by design?

Yeah, this sounds like WAI to me.
