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
When calling `.open()` with a target of `_system`, the InAppBrowser on iOS is both launching the URL in the system browser AND also broadcasting to open the URL within the app (calling handleOpenURL). The latter behavior is problematic in many circumstances (e.g. when you want to explicitly open a link in a browser which is a universal link handled by the app).
This commit attempts to address this by checking the return value from openURL -- if it does not open the URL successfully, then (and only then) the code falls back to broadcasting the event within the app to handleOpenURL.
