Description

First of all, I would like to say thank you for this incredible library.

But one moment makes me frustrating, I have spent a lot of time reading, googling and testing a possibility to run chrome with extensions, but seems nothing works for me. E.g. I'm using 'chromy' engine with this configuration:
```json
"engineOptions": {
"visible": true,
"userDataDir": "/Users/user/Library/Application Support/Google/Chrome/",
"enableExtensions": true,
"args": ["--no-sandbox"]
},
```
Chrome is opening, but flash extension is not running:

How to force flash to start?

Research direction

Start by reproducing the reported configuration with the Chromy engine, visible Chrome, the specified userDataDir, enableExtensions, and --no-sandbox. Check whether the project exposes an extension-related entry point or test; done means determining whether the Flash extension can be started and documenting or fixing the supported behavior.
