XKB extension not loaded in ChromiumOS guest mode

Reported by lzmartin...@gmail.com, Aug 29

Issue description

UserAgent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; CrOS x86_64 10718.93.2018) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/68.0.3440.125 Safari/537.36
Platform: 10718.93.2018_08_24_1144 (Developer Build - slapuser9) developer-build lars

Steps to reproduce the problem:
1. Log into Guest User
2. Turn on non-latin input method or virtual keyboard
3. Focus on a text field and type a character

What is the expected behavior?
The character appears in the text field, or an IME overlay showing possible character completions is shown

What went wrong?
It seems that the XKB extension fgoepimhcoialccpbmpnnblemnepkkao is not loaded; at login, error message 
`ERROR:input_method_manager_impl.cc(1080)] IMEEngine for "fgoepimhcoialccpbmpnnblemnepkkao" is not registered`
is logged.
On a ChromeOS guest session, or having logged into ChromiumOS, switching on virtual keyboard or an IME will activate the XKB extension(jkghodnilhceideoidjikpgommlajknk for ChromeOS). Although this IMEEngine error is also in the logs, the virtual keyboard and IMEs will work.

Did this work before? N/A

Hi Yingbing, could you please take a look at this? I thought we load XKB extension in login and guest mode...

In guest mode, html 5 persistent storage is not allow to be accessed.
So extension can't download the remote language models.
It should only support Language with build-in language models.
Such as Chinese Pinyin/Zhuyin, Japanese, English, French, Spanish, Germany, Italy.

So what's the IME you used?

Hi, we tried several languages, including chinese and japanese (as well as Korean and other non-latin languages) for IME, and English and French for the virtual keyboard
This bug had an unsupported status. Updating to Untriaged so someone will reevaluate.
