> Fix potential problems with blocks usage in core plugins

>                 Key: CB-8863
>                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CB-8863
>             Project: Apache Cordova
>          Issue Type: Bug
>          Components: iOS
>            Reporter: Shazron Abdullah
>            Assignee: Jesse MacFadyen

> Audit the core plugins to check for proper blocks usage.
> Problems that I see can be summed up in this (fixed) code:
> https://github.com/apache/cordova-plugin-splashscreen/blob/fa60f01adcba2d21583de7972a0facc4da1eb75e/src/ios/CDVSplashScreen.m#L292-L313
> 1. You need a weak reference to "self" in blocks to prevent retain cycle 
> problems.
> Fix: 
> https://github.com/apache/cordova-plugin-splashscreen/blob/fa60f01adcba2d21583de7972a0facc4da1eb75e/src/ios/CDVSplashScreen.m#L292
> 2. Anything that calls UIKit methods, which includes plugins that write 
> JavaScript back to the UIWebView (commandDelegate functions), must be called 
> in the main thread.
> Fix: 
> https://github.com/apache/cordova-plugin-splashscreen/blob/fa60f01adcba2d21583de7972a0facc4da1eb75e/src/ios/CDVSplashScreen.m#L308-L310
>  (UPDATE: we actually already handle this in evalJS)
> 3. Avoid creating private variables like this in the first place -- I would 
> create a class extension which will effectively have "private" properties 
> (nothing is truly private in objc). This is to avoid this situation in the 
> block where you have to cast the weak self into a strong self (and check it's 
> still around), just to access a private variable:
> https://github.com/apache/cordova-plugin-splashscreen/blob/fa60f01adcba2d21583de7972a0facc4da1eb75e/src/ios/CDVSplashScreen.m#L298-L304
> Of course since we are modifying UIKit items here, rule 2 above also applies.
