Description

The Android SplashScreen plugin's showSplashScreen() method takes a parameter that determines whether the splashscreen should be hidden after a configurable delay. If an initial call to show the splash screen comes in with a delay, but while it is visible a second call comes in to show the splashscreen WITHOUT a delay, the splash screen will still be removed after the initial delay.

In this scenario, I would expect that, due to the second call to show without auto-hiding, the splash screen would stay visible until the hide() method is called.

Repro steps:
1. Splash screen is automatically shown on startup (e.g. showSplashScreen(true) is called in plugin initializer). If no SplashScreenDelay is specified in config.xml, then a default of 3s is used.
2. While the splash screen is still visible, the user calls navigator.splashscreen.show() from code (meaning it should be shown without a timeout, e.g. showSplashScreen(false) is called from onMessage).

Actual:
Splash screen disappears after delay.

Expected:
Splash screen should stay visible until hide() is explicitly called.
