Better exploring browser history: Show the pages where a redirect orginated from

Reported by antsan...@gmail.com, Mar 5 2017

Issue description

UserAgent: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10_11_6) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/56.0.2924.87 Safari/537.36

Steps to reproduce the problem:
I click on a Reddit link, the page then redirects to the link in the same tab, I then close the tab by accident after a few hours of browsing, and don't know how to get back to Reddit so I can leave a comment on the article. 

What is the expected behavior?
In site history, show the URL of the site where the redirect originated from. 

What went wrong?
See above. 

Did this work before? N/A 

Chrome version: 56.0.2924.87  Channel: stable
OS Version: OS X 10.11.6
Flash Version: Shockwave Flash 24.0 r0

Ex: Site Foo (foo.com), Site Bar(bar.com)

User is on foo.com. User clicks redirect to bar.com. Tab is now bar.com. User browses other tabs for a few hours, then closes bar.com by accident. User opens history and can see recent entry for bar.com, but doesn't see foo.com. 

Current-  10:00 | b.com | 
              ....
          5:00  | a.com |

Proposed: 10:00 | b.com <- a.com 
               ....
          5:00  | a.com |
