Description of the issue: Reproducible crashes on iOS

How can this issue be reproduced?

  1. Open Brave or just a new tab
  2. Quickly type zzzz in the address bar (other repeated letters might also work)

Expected result: Nothing happens

Actual result: Brave immediately crashes

Brave Version( check About Brave): 1.18.1

Mobile Device details iPad Pro running iOS 13.5.1

Additional Information: Crashes first were introduced with Brave 1.18.1, typing slowly will not crash Brave, suggestions that are being displayed under the address bar when typing could be to blame for this behavior

I would like to add that deleting history will temporarily solve the problem. As soon as history is filling up again the crashes will also occur again.

It seems to have to do with the suggestions that are being displayed under the address bar when typing anything. Version 1.18.1 seems to have introduced some bug in handling these suggestions that will crash Brave.
