    Description

      See the attached example (main.cpp) for details. Load a page first then set new persistent storage path by QWebEngineProfile::setPersistentStoragePath function. The application crashes:

      "/Users/stampho/Library/Application Support/persistent-storage-path/QtWebEngine/Default"
      "/tmp/persistent-storage"

      Widget is tested, most probably Quick API is also affected because assert is triggered in chromium. The error message regarding to the missing Visited Links file is not relevant. The crash is reproducible with existing local storage directory too.

      I've also tested this with 5.7 and couldn't reproduce this issue. All platforms seem to be affected I could reproduce this on Linux, Windows and OS X.

      This issue can be also reproduced by demobrowser: change value in Settings->Privacy->Persistent Data Path field and the browser crashes.
