Crostini cannot receive new network connections after browser tries parsing large files

Reported by spiffyt...@gmail.com, Sep 23

Issue description

UserAgent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; CrOS x86_64 10895.56.0) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/69.0.3497.95 Safari/537.36
Platform: 10895.56.0 (Official Build) stable-channel eve

Example URL:

Steps to reproduce the problem:
1. Inside a Crostini terminal, create a large file, like this:

`dd if=/dev/zero of=25Mb.html bs=1024 count=25000`

If you cannot reproduce that way, you may use this Creative Commons music file from the Live Music Archive: https://archive.org/download/bfft2006-01-24.flac16/bfft2006-01-24d1t01.flac

2. Serve the file with any file serving mechanism. Tested tools include Webpack, and `python -m SimpleHTTPServer`

3. Open the Network tab of Developer Tools

4. Attempt to download the file via Chrome. Watch the Status section of the Network tab. If first attempt succeeds, refresh a few more times. Exact trigger is imprecise.

What is the expected behavior?
The file works just fine. Opens, renders, plays, whatever.

What went wrong?
For files at some size above a few MB, Chrome attempting to parse the files cuts the network connection and you can no longer access any web server running inside Crostini without rebooting the VM.

I first observed this because Webpack Dev Server serves uncompressed JavaScript and attempting to access my dev site triggered this bug. That means I cannot develop my app on my Chromebook.

Did this work before? N/A

Smbarber, can you look into this? Is this a Chrome or Crostini issue?
