### Platforms affected
Android
iOS (both UIWebView & WKWebView implementations)
### What does this PR do?
Adds support for [postMessage API](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/Window/postMessage) enabling pages loaded into the InappBrowser to post messages back to the parent Webview of the Cordova app.
For example, sending event messages associated with UI interactions such as button clicks from the wrapped page back to the parent app Webview.
### What testing has been done on this change?
Automated tests have been extended to cover the `message` event.
### Checklist
- [x ] Commit message follows the format: "GH-3232: (android) Fix bug with resolving file paths", where CB-xxxx is the JIRA ID & "android" is the platform affected.
- [ x] Added automated test coverage as appropriate for this change.
On Android, if the app defines an intent-filter for a given URL, and
then tries to use inappbrowser to launch that URL via the _system
target, the default handler for that intent is the app itself.
That behavior can lead to circular loops, and ultimately is not what the
developer wants -- the link should be launched in a browser.
Because there is no easy way to find the "default" system browser on a
device, this solution will do two things:
1) Check if the app is one of the targets for this intent
2) If so, create a custom chooser with all other targets, excluding the
current app.
If the app is not a target, then the current (existing) behavior is
preserved.
The only real "downside" to this approach is that a default handler can no longer be set for these URLs within the app, and a chooser will be shown each time the user taps a link that opens in a new browser.
Fixes https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CB-10795

Added support for hiding the web view container. This maintains the browser
session without closing it. The browser window can be repeatedly hidden and
shown.
** This has only been tested on android and ios **
amazon/android:
An additional `hide` action was added to `InAppBrowser#execute`. It is
identical to `show`, except that it calls `dialog.hide()` instead.
blackberry10:
no changes
firefoxos:
Added a `hide` method that is identical to `show`, indicating it is not
supported.
ios:
Added a `hide` method that is identical to `show`, except that it uses
`dismissViewControllerAnimated`. It checks the value of
`_previousStatusBarStyle`. If it is `-1`, the method returns with no
action performed. If it is not, it is set to `-1.`
ubuntu:
Added a `hide` method that sets `CordovaWrapper.global.inappbrowser.visible` to
`false`.
windows:
Added a `hide` method that sets `browserWrap.style.display` to `none`.
wp:
Added a `hide` method that is identical to `show`, except that it sets
`browser.Visibility` to `Visibility.Collapsed` and sets `AppBar.IsVisible` to
`false`.
HadwareBackButton value persists across usages. By default hardwareBack value is null. In this case we should set hadwareBackButton to default value.
This closes#188
