Well, bad news, the workaround doesn't work. Nothing from a file://
url will load in a WKWebView in an iOS 8 beta 5 device.

Assumptions:
1. WKWebView can load resources from tmp / Documents / Library / Library/Caches
2. Can copy www folder in app bundle to tmp / Documents / Library /
Library/Caches
