Describe the issue you encountered:
Brave is not detecting the need for Widevine on Amazon Prime Video.

Expected behavior:
Brave should detect when Widevine is needed and prompt appropriately like we do for Flash.

Platform (Win7, 8, 10? macOS? Linux distro?):
Tested on OS X.
Brave Version:
0.12.8
Steps to reproduce:
1. Visit Amazon Prime, login.
2. Attempt to watch a prime video.
Screenshot if needed:

Test Plan:
The heuristic is not super good for determining if widevine prompt should come up so we really need to make sure it doesn't come up on other amazon pages, but does come up on Amazon prime video related pages. I suggest testing this with disabled widevine so you get the dialog and know when the heuristic is hit
Other heuristics I tried that didn't work was URLs /dp/ (some other
products have this), and s=instant_video (some videos don't have this)

I reverted this because it needs a better metric. I'm moving git to 0.12.9 instead, possibly it'll be moved later even.

Problems with the current one:
It was working for me on amazon prime videos
Alex wasn't getting URLs on amazon prime videos in the same format
Ayumi was seeing the prompt on aws pages.

I also tried various other heuristics before, so I think we need to find something in the page instead of using the URL as the heuristic.

This issue needs attention in 1.0 timeframe.

Adding a few DOM elements which we might be able to look for:

I'm getting this blocking dialog when trying to watch amazon prime video.

Your web browser is missing a digital rights component. Go to chrome://components and under WidevineCdm, click Check for update.

The instructions don't work, because chrome://components is not a working url in Brave
