Consider moving the ad filter's safe browsing client into safe_browsing

Project Member Reported by csharrison@chromium.org, Mar 19 2018

Issue description

There are now two components that are clients of the subresource_filter specific Safe Browsing check: the popup blocker and the ad filter code.

It would be nice to move this navigation check (handled currently via a NavigationThrottle) into Safe Browsing proper, so that popup blocker code doesn't need to depend on ad filter code.

This check is implemented in subresource_filter_safe_browsing_activation_throttle.cc.

It is my understanding that in the network service world, SafeBrowsing navigation checks will be handled by a NavigationThrottle. Possibly this integration could integrate with that work.

Varun: WDYT about this?

That sounds like a good idea. Do you have a design in mind that you can share?

I can work on a design. I wanted to avoid doing a lot of design if the team was opposed in general.

I'm marking this as available since I don't have immediate plans to do it, but someone on my team might.
