MD notification views don't display contextMessage

Project Member Reported by est...@chromium.org, Dec 21 2017

Issue description

The app notification API has something called a "contextMessage", "which is displayed as a 3rd text field in a lighter color font." [1]

Pre-MD notifications respected this (the text "Foobar." in the attached screenshot). MD notifications ignore it. Perhaps this was a design oversight?

engineer's note: to test this I used

./out/Release/chrome --load-extension=chrome/test/data/extensions/api_test/notifications/api/basic_usage/ --disable-features="NativeNotifications"

after making some minor subtractions to that app's background.js and then launching the notification by calling testBaseFormat() from a developer console.
Didn't we choose to remove this from notification because of low usage?

It's possible, but it's still supported elsewhere (pre-MD messagecenter notifications and some native platforms). I'm happy to delete it if everyone agrees.

So, what is the verdict?

I believe we just discussed this with Peter, Hwi and Finnur and that we were ok proceeding to remove it. 

cc Finnur and Peter to confirm.
ping Finnur, Hwi, Peter.^
That is my understanding (that we're deprecating it).
