Description Chris Dumez 2023-09-27 12:56:30 PDT 
Stop doing a synchronous DecidePolicyForNavigationAction IPC for fragment navigations. We still call the client delegate (but asynchronously) and proceed with the navigation synchronously, without waiting for the client decision. This is consistent with what we did for empty document loads (about:blank). Navigation to fragments are not true navigations and merely cause scrolling.
