[Problem/Bug]: RenderProcessExited when navigating to nytimes.com

Using WebView2 140.0.3468.0, visiting http://nytimes.com results in a consistent RenderProcessExited failure. There is no such failure using earlier WebView2 versions.

@gkerenyi, I tried with latest version of Canary 140.0.3470.0 and I don't have a repro. Could you try with the latest version and see if it still repros?
