Displaying a ~32 KB data URL in the URL bar's suggestion field slows the UI down

Reported by peterwun...@peterwunder.de, Jul 21 2017

Issue description

UserAgent: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10_12_5) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/59.0.3071.115 Safari/537.36

Steps to reproduce the problem:
1. Copy the data url in this paste: https://pastebin.com/VVPcMr8R
2. Open it in Chrome
3. Type "da" into Chrome's URL bar and watch the UI crawl to a halt while Chrome tries to re-render the data url with every new keystroke

What is the expected behavior?
Chrome either doesn't display data URLs at all or filters out those that are excessively long. Cutting long data URLs off at some point would work too, I guess

What went wrong?
Chrome doesn't limit data URL lengths in the part of the URL bar that displays suggestions while typing.

Did this work before? No 

Chrome version: 59.0.3071.115  Channel: stable
OS Version: OS X 10.12.5
Flash Version: 

According to pastebin, the URL alone is 32 KB. Don't ask why I had that URL in my history.

Able to reproduce the issue using # 59.0.3071.115 on Mac 10.12.5, Win 10, Ubuntu 14.04.

This seems to be a Non-Regression issue as same behavior is seen since M45. Untriaged to get more inputs from dev.

Issue is seen in M61 as well.

Thanks!!
