Crash on Loading Some Resource Requests with Ad Blocker Enabled

Description
On loading some resource requests a `java.lang.NullPointerException` is thrown on `MainWebView.java:533` which is:
`if (adServersSet.contains(requestHost)) {`
Performing a search on github.com reliably triggers this bug.
An example resource request URL that causes this problem:
blob:https%3A//github.com/25a450fc-45f3-455a-8cb8-0a9599216479
Which, of course, returns a null host value.
This problem manifests on this website with API 19 (4.4.2, KitKat) but not on API 25 (7.1.1, Nougat). This is likely due to the different version of Chrome, 30.0.0.0 vs. 55.0.2883.91.
This was introduced with the ad blocker in version 1.14. It only manifests if the ad blocker is enabled.
- Status changed from New to Closed
