Fix header disappearing at the top of a long change stream
The cause of the issue going blank was due to the way backpressure relief when parsing high-throughput change stream JSON was implemented. Previously when backpressure occurred new cunks of data were simply discarded, but the parsing was re-attempted; usually skipping chunks of json string caused parsing to fail immediately, but sometimes dropping chunks results in a syntactically valid, but structurally invalid JSON, so the parsing succeeded, but the result values were unpredictable. These events caused UI to crash as malformed JSON objects propagated in the UI.
The fix is to re-start parsing when backpressure was relieved by dropping chunks of the stream
