From github: https://github.com/mozilla-mobile/android-components/issues/6154.

With the change in PR #6111 we will call speculativeConnect() for the search URL whenever the user changes the text in the URL bar.

This seems over-eager since those connect calls are all for the same host anyways.

Looking at Firefox code it seems like they do a speculative connect for the search URL and suggest URL once the toolbar gets focused. This seems a good place to do an early connect since we will need suggestions once the user starts typing and if the user performs a search we already have a connection too.
