Enable setting Accept-Language from the command-line

Today, the Accept-Language is constructed by concatenating any
policy-forced languages with the |intl.selected_languages| preference
stored in the user's profile.

We have received requests to allow specifying a different
Accept-Language via the command line, akin to how the --lang
command-line argument permits temporarily overriding the browser's UI
language.

This CL addresses the request by adding a --accept-lang command-line
argument that overrides the profile preference via the
CommandLinePrefStore. Any policy-forced languages will continue to be
prepended to the Accept-Language header value.

Logo Chromium

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.

If you found a bug, please file it at https://crbug.com/new.
