Chrome treats searching for character 'ø' as if searching for character 'o'

Reported by rune.kri...@schibsted.com, Aug 4 2017 
UserAgent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/60.0.3112.78 Safari/537.36

Steps to reproduce the problem:
1. Search for the letter 'ø' or short words with letter 'ø'.
2. 
3. 

What is the expected behavior?
You will only get words with the letter 'ø', and not with the letter 'o'.

For example, while reading the article about Gulatingsloven, I was interested in searching for the norwegian word 'øl' (beer) to see if the article contained the old norwegian law about farmers having to brew beer for christmas.

Unfortunately, it also matches every word that contains the letters 'ol'.  

Ø and O are completely different vowels in Norwegian, and this bug is kind of similar to matching the vowel 'a' when you search for the letter 'e'.  

What went wrong?
You also get the letter 'o' or words with the letter 'o'.

Did this work before? N/A

What UI language do you use? Does it happen when the UI language is Norwegian?
