Extensions: add documentation for extension access to file:// URLs

Project Member Reported by rdevlin....@chromium.org, Jun 7 2018

Issue description

Extensions can access file:// URLs only if the user enabled file access through chrome://extensions.  However, this isn't really documented anywhere that I could find.

crystallambert@, is this something we can add?
