Description

My app has registered a protocol handler, to enable deep linking from our website (app linking).

If the app is closed and called via protocol/file/... the app will crash, as the splashscreen is null.

Steps to reproduce:

• Register a protocol handler
• Make sure the app is closed
• execute the scheme
• see it crash

I don't know if the check is really needed:
https://github.com/apache/cordova-windows/blob/master/cordova-js-src/splashscreen.js#L289

The app will crash everytime when ActivationKind != launch.

Of course I can do a PR but I don't know the side effects yet.

Kind regards,
Gregor.
