Add UMA to track idle time behavior for CRD access to Kiosks

Project Member Reported by mnissler@chromium.org, Aug 22

Issue description

issue 864384 adds support for admins to establish chromoting sessions with Kiosk devices.

To help the admin not invade user privacy, we decided that the device will perform idle detection before establishing the connection and warning the admin if there's recent user interaction (but allow to still connect).

We'd like to understand how this feature behaves in practice, hence the request to add a UMA histogram that collects data on how often admins end up connection to non-idle sessions in practice.

atwilson@ - since your team owns the feature, can you handle this?
 
By the design the client only receives the expected idleness (which can be 0, meaning that we can connect even if user is currently active).

We can report number of attempts that fail due to user activity, as well as number of successful attempts with 0 idleness cutoff. Does it sound reasonable?
Is UMA the right way to track this vs a server-side dashboard? UMA is somewhat unreliable since customers may disable this.

antrim@, let's log the UMA you suggest. It's easy to add and is a reasonable (albeit not 100% accurate) indicator of how admins are using this feature.
