Add a way to synthesize user gesture on a page as extension #898

@carlosjeurissen

Description

@carlosjeurissen

Some extensions require main world scripts to be executed with elevated user gesture. With the current API set, this is not possible.

A potential way to achieve this could be:

scripting.executeScript({
  userGesture: true,
});
