Description

We need a consistent cross platform way of getting info on how the app was launched. Different launch mechanisms could include registered protocols, local or push notifications or intents from other applications. All of the above launch mechanisms could potentially include some additional information passed in to the application. We need a consistent way of registering to receive this info inside a cordova app.

Example use :
https://github.com/katzer/cordova-plugin-local-notifications

iOS:
handleOpenURL global function, CB-7606, CB-8970
https://github.com/apache/cordova-plugins/tree/master/notification-rebroadcast

Windows:
CB-8674, https://github.com/apache/cordova-js/commit/f86227b8fe80a13d8db35a7478c798782aee1b17
