Settings: Don't pre-allocate space for incognito checkbox in "add exception dialog".

Project Member Reported by dpa...@chromium.org, Jun 5 2018

Issue description

Currently we pre-allocate white space to hold the "current incognito session" checkbox, which makes the dialog look odd in the normal case, where no incognito window is open.

Proposal: Let's have the dialog grow when an incognito dialog is shown, instead of pre-allocating the space. Thoughts?

The original issue was that the dialog would decrease in size after the incognito status was retrieved causing a flicker ( https://crbug.com/708078 ). It seems preferable to wait until the incognito status is known before opening the dialog.
I see, thanks for finding the original issue. Personally I think not pre-allocating size, such that the dialog can only grow once incognito status is retrieved, instead of shrinking is a good trade-off between primary and secondary use cases.
Summary: Settings: Don't pre-allocate space for incognito checkbox in "add exception dialog". (was: Settings: Don't pre-allocate spec for incognito checkbox in "add exception dialog".)
