cast certificate: enable --cast-developer-certificate-path switch

Previously the Chrome command line switch,
--cast-developer-certificate-path, was only used if the build flag,
cast_allow_developer_certificate was set to true. This CL enables the
command line switch always. Doing so helps unblock testing on the CQ
and on ChromeOS. The change is in a few parts.

One change is to use the platform independent command line parsing
method: base::CommandLine::GetSwitchValuePath(). Doing so fixes
compilation on Windows where FilePath is constructed from std::wstring.

Another change is to gate starting a task to load the certificate file
by the presence of the command line switch. This avoids an issue where
the CastAuthUtilTest lacks a task environment. It is also a
micro-optimization.

Since build flag cast_allow_developer_certificate is no longer used, the
certificate BUILD.gn no longer include its definition from
third_party/openscreen.

This change also adds the --cast-developer-certificate-path switch to
the "bad flags" list, so a user will see a warning in the info bar if
the flag has been set.

A security review of always enabling the switch has been approved.

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.
