history.replaceState causes reload of favicon

Reported by w...@emweb.be, Feb 27 2018 
UserAgent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; Win64; x64; rv:58.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/58.0

Steps to reproduce the problem:
1. put test case on a web server and open in web browser
2. open Inspector or web server logs
3. observe that favicon-32x32.png and favicon-16x16.png are reloaded every second

What is the expected behavior?
favicons should not be reloaded just because replaceState() is called with different state.

What went wrong?
Call to replaceState() seems to trigger a favicon reload, without even considering the cache for these files.

Did this work before? N/A 

Does this work in other browsers? Yes

The reloading of favicons is observed in the networking tab of inspector, as shown in the attached video. They are also actually fetched on the webserver (not shown on the video).

Able to reproduce the issue on Mac 10.13.3 and Win-10 using chrome reported version #64.0.3282.186 and latest canary #67.0.3361.0. Issue is not seen in OS-Linux.
This is a non-regression issue as it is observed from M60 old builds. 

Hence, marking it as untriaged to get more inputs from dev team.

Thanks...!!
