Subject: [PATCH] [Doc-PiP] Secure initializeCompositor with origin check

Guards against the startup race condition described in bug
518025103 by verifying the opener's origin at the start of
initializeCompositor(). This prevents origin spoofing if the
opener navigates before the child WebContents delegate is
attached.

Also removes the redundant check from onStart() as it is now
fully covered by the check in initializeCompositor() (at the
asynchronous boundary) and performPreInflationStartup() (as
a fail-fast measure).

Bug: 518025103
