Scroll anchoring causes scroll jumping on vox.com articles

Project Member Reported by komoroske@chromium.org, Nov 9 2016

Issue description

Version: 55.0.2883.36
OS: Android

What steps will reproduce the problem?
(1) Enable Scroll Anchoring in About:flags
(2) Visit a vox.com article page (e.g. http://www.vox.com/policy-and-politics/2016/11/9/13572172/donald-trump-white-working-class). These pages leave black squares as placeholders for images in the article, and only load them once they are on screen (which is a bit weird)
(3) Scroll to show one of the black squares, and then continue scrolling so it is off screen at the top of the viewport before the image loads.

What is the expected result?

When the image loads, the page does not appear to scroll, due to scroll anchoring.

What happens instead?

When the image loads, the page scrolls by quite a bit. It is actually much WORSE with scroll anchoring on than off.

What device did you observe this on?

I am unable to repro in canary on a Pixel C - with scroll anchoring on, there is a jump if the placeholder overlaps the top of the viewport, but no jump if it is fully offscreen.  I see more jumping with scroll anchoring off than when it is on.

I'm seeing this on a Pixel XL phone.

Maybe next time I'm in MTV I can repro the behavior for you in person--it's possible I'm doing something odd.

I tried to repro this on the Pixel XL and Nexus 6P but had no luck.
