Chrome-for-iOS could probably do auto-reload of web pages on network errors more

Reported by cbent...@gmail.com, Nov 8

Issue description

Example URL:
Cross-URLs, depends on transient network conditions

Steps to reproduce the problem:
Load web pages in Chrome-for-iOS. Occasionally hit transient network issues. Manual reload addresses it, but would be nice for auto-reload or auto-retry behavior to fix it instead.

What is the expected behavior?

What went wrong?
I recently started using an iPad and Chrome-on-iOS more than in the past.

During operations, I regularly (~ 1% of page loads?) get a transient network failure when loading a web page. 

I believe the logic for auto-reloading pages with some sort of exponential backoff got ported to Chrome-for-iOS at one point, similar to what was done on other platforms. Perhaps it's bitrot a bit, or perhaps I'm hitting specific network errors which don't trigger the auto-reload logic.

I'll post specific ERR_* response codes later tonight if it would help.

Did this work before? N/A

Eugene, do you think that we can make improvements to our net error handling?
