Added release blocking since this is part of the regression list for each release

Appears to be Windows only and only happens if Flash is installed

Error being logged:

[9508:2068:0424/164223.990:ERROR:CONSOLE(0)] "Unchecked runtime.lastError while running guestViewInternal.destroyGuest: Unknown error.", source: chrome://brave/C:/Users/brian/AppData/Local/brave/app-0.15.0/resources/app.asar/app/extensions/brave/index.html (0)

On Windows 10 32 bit the issue cannot be reproduced with the latest build: 958aab0. maybe fixed?

+1 on signin.ebay.de. Reported on community https://community.brave.com/t/ebay-consistently-crashes-brave/2350
Happens on 0.15.0 RC4. Same frown face when page loads.
