    android: Fix Chrome startup crash due to system language choice. · 26d969cf
    David 'Digit' Turner authored
    Chrome currently crashes on startup on Android if the system locale is
    set to something that it doesn't support.
    
    For example, set the system locale to 'Furlan': regular Android
    applications will fallback to display English strings as a fallback,
    but Chrome crashes on startup immediately.
    
    This CL fixes the issue, by detecting which locale the Android framework
    uses to display strings effectively, then using this value to extract
    the corresponding .pak file, instead of trying to find one that matches
    the current system setting.
    
    + Move compressed locale file detection to background thread.
      Since this now requires I/O access when accessing the
      resources, this operation can no longer be performed on
      the UI thread.
