Domain fronting to App Engine stopped working

On or about 2018-04-13 16:00:00 UTC, domain-fronted requests for *.appspot.com stopped working. It appears to affect fronting to all appspot.com domains, not only ours. This has broken Snowflake client registration and Moat (#25807 (moved)).

Requests now fail with status code 502:

$ wget -q -O - --content-on-error -S https://www.google.com/ --header 'Host: snowflake-reg.appspot.com'

This ticket is to document the issue; I'm not sure we can do anything about it directly.
