Plugin native event system about capacitor

[mlynch]

Similarly, figure out a custom app delegate. Facebook does theirs like this:

https://github.com/facebook/facebook-sdk-swift/blob/82d4f4bc4226bd9d0494a604cb2f39632f6a0b57/Sources/Core/Common/SDKApplicationDelegate.swift
https://github.com/facebook/facebook-sdk-swift/blob/master/Samples/Catalog/Sources/AppDelegate.swift

Added the delegate in 80197c7

A lot of AppDelegate events emit a notification, see the Notifications section of https://developer.apple.com/documentation/uikit/uiapplication.

So plugins can subscribe to them in load method.

For the ones not available we should do it ourselves in the class you created

Going to close as we propagate some of the AppDelegate methods and others are emitted by iOS itself in notification center.
If we need any other in particular better create a separate issue.

Hey @jcesarmobile & @mlynch

If I understand the consequences of this correctly, it means that Cordova plugins that require AppDelegate access won't work at all with Capacitor. I cannot see any way to make this happen with even development done on the plugin's code itself. Could you please confirm this so I can spare my time instead of trying to make the plugin compatible with Capacitor?

I'm just implementing iOS support (as v13 adds the NFC functionality) for cordova-plugin-mifare-ultralight and would like it to work with the Capacitor too as the latest apps of ours are using it instead of Cordova.
