[Topics] Measure a misuse pattern: topics called on a page after redirects What: When Topics API is first invoked in a page, record 1) the number of automated client-side redirect occurred before this page, and 2) among those redirects, the number of pages that invoked Topics API. Why: Topics API can be misused when a site gets topics and passes it to the next site in the URL param via automated redirect, and repeating this process several times allows the cooperating sites to get all the user's topics upon a single page visit (i.e. 3 topics per site, and 15 topics from 5 sites). Thus, we want to better understand the usage patterns. How: Add a WebContentsObserver that tracks the topics usage in a chain of automated redirects, by getting the previous page's redirect status, updating it, and initializing the next page with the updated status. When Topics API is first used in a page, record UMA metrics. See the class comment for `BrowsingTopicsRedirectObserver` for details.

Chromium is an open-source browser project that aims to build a safer, faster, and more stable way for all users to experience the web.
The project's web site is https://www.chromium.org.
To check out the source code locally, don't use git clone! Instead, follow the instructions on how to get the code.
Documentation in the source is rooted in docs/README.md.
Learn how to Get Around the Chromium Source Code Directory Structure.
For historical reasons, there are some small top level directories. Now the guidance is that new top level directories are for product (e.g. Chrome, Android WebView, Ash). Even if these products have multiple executables, the code should be in subdirectories of the product.
