Comment (by mikeperry):

 Ok, I attached a second follow-on patch that updates the speculative
 connect subsection. It gives what I hope is a more clear description of
 what we do and why we do it. It is written assuming that rel=prefetch and
 rel=prerender are also properly isolated for cache and other state via the
 existing rel=preconnect patch. If the investigation in #21657 finds this
 not to be the case, then we need to either fix it, or disable prefetching
 and prerendering and update this patch to say so.

 Leaving this as needs_information until #21657 is resolved for that
 reason.
