[Feature] Tools to flag improper TaskPriority on tasks posted to TaskScheduler

Project Member Reported by gab@chromium.org, May 3 2018

Issue description

This is a tracker bug for work related to automating finding of tasks with non-ideal TaskPriorities.

Identified potential gains should be marked as blocking this bug.

Step #1 is to add browser tests that ensure we can startup+navigate without BACKGROUND tasks (issue 831835).

Further ideas :
 - Fuzz random USER_BLOCKING tasks to run as BACKGROUND, if we can still startup+navigate then that task shouldn't be USER_BLOCKING? (might need to define a few more user blocking actions that must be achievable without this task for it to be flagged, e.g. input-based like scroll).

 - Automate searching through Slow Reports traces for janky tasks on the critical paths and move them to TaskScheduler.

fdoray will own and drive this (and WontFix this if he decides not to automate beyond issue 831835)
