testcase reproducing the issue

Since this commit (https://github.com/WebKit/WebKit/commit/69e20d2d802478463e4550fc6408156c6ee8aa81#diff-d607936f085c93e3e1113e2c988f664830ab21dbe8351cfc08744a8b5112d473) fragment navigation can interrupt another load, triggered eg from url bar. It's surprising, because now url bar doesn't work 100% reliably. It's the same for WPE webkit, where I originally found this issue, where url is changed through API. Now that api can fail, depending what exactly webpage is doing. 

Reproduction steps:
1. Open navigation_test.html in the browser
2. Switch url to google.com

Expected:
URL will always change to google.com

Actual:
switch to google.com was cancelled. 

Reproduced on WPE webkit 2.38 and on epiphany 44.6-1
