Session manager not remembering / restoring window size for minimized windows

Reported by xaser...@hotmail.de, Oct 22 2017

Issue description

UserAgent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64; rv:56.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/56.0

Steps to reproduce the problem:
1. Open multiple windows (optionally multiple tabs)
2. Maximize each window
3. Minimize one or more window to the taskbar (e.g. Win+D)
4. Restore one window and exit chrome (ctrl+shift+q)
5. Restart Chrome

What is the expected behavior?
All restored windows are in the maximized state that they were in when chrome was exited

What went wrong?
All minimized windows are not in a maximized state anymore, but in the "normal" mode.

Did this work before? No 

Chrome version: 64.0.3246.0  Channel: stable
OS Version: 10.0
Flash Version: -

I'm not sure why this has persistent for so long. For me the "steps to reproduce" are an essential part of my everyday workflow and I run into this problems multiple times a day.

"Continue where you have left option" must be enabled in the settings.

Was able to reproduce issue the same way as shown above on Canary 64.0.3250.0.

Thanks for the reply.
Able to reproduce the issue on Windows 7 & windows 10 using chrome stable-62.0.3202.75 & Canary-64.0.3250.0 as per C#0.

Observed that the minimized windows are not relaunched to its original size (i.e maximized state).

This is non regression issue observed from M50 builds to latest Canary.Hence marking it as Untriaged to get more inputs from dev.

Please find the attached screencast for reference.

Note: Unable to reproduce the issue on Mac 10.12.6 7 Ubuntu 14.04

Same issue filed in FF for 12y now. In FF sourcecode the issue is related to the API used by the sessionrestore manager not exposing sufficient information on whether the window was maximized or normal state before minimizing. API just exposes Windowstate as "normal", "minimized", "maximized". Likely the same in Chrome.

Requires additional variable to remember whether window used to be maximized or not.
