[Extensions MV2] Expose "AllowLegacyMV2Extensions" in chrome://flags Chrome has announced that MV2 extensions will gradually no longer be supported in the browser. See more information at https://developer.chrome.com/blog/resuming-the-transition-to-mv3. In the next experiment phase, extensions will be disabled and may not be re-enabled by the user. For a period of time, enterprises will still be able to override this with the ExtensionManifestV2Availability policy. While MV2 extensions are supported in any capacity (including with the enterprise policy), we need to make sure developers have a way to load, run, and test their extensions. This exposes the "AllowLegacyMV2Extensions" feature in chrome://flags to let developers flip it for testing and development purposes. *This flag is temporary* and will be removed when support for the enterprise policy is removed.

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.
