Missing "referer" attribute in the header

Reported by jic...@groupon.com, Nov 1 2016

Issue description

Device name: Nexus 5X

From "Settings > About Chrome"
Application version: 54.0.2840.68
Operating system: 7.0


URLs (if applicable): www.groupon.com

Steps to reproduce:
(1) install "Groupon - Shop Deals & Coupons" android native app
(2) Settings -> apps -> Groupon -> Open by default -> Open supported links 
(3) select "Ask every time"
(4) open "https://www.groupon.com" in android chrome
(5) navigate to "featured" or "nearby" tab
(6) touch on any deal
(7) a pop up to ask user to select an app ( Chrome or Groupon ) to open the link
(8) select Chrome with the "ALWAYS" option
(9) repeat step 5 & 6

Expected result:
One http request with the proper "referer" attribute in the request header

Actual result:
chrome actually do two http requests:
1. start but auto cancel the first one which has the "referer" in the request header
2. start the second one without "referer" in the request header
