Summary:
if app calls calls -[UIApplication openURL:] with URL scheme assigned to the app itself, AppDelegate should not go through applicationWillResignActive / applicationDidBecomeActive

Steps to Reproduce:
Please use attached project.
Launch, click the button, observe log messages in console.

Actual Results:
Even though the URL is handled by the app itself, and it doesn’t become inactive, the app delegate receives both applicationWillResignActive & applicationDidBecomeActive callbacks.

Expected Results:
App delegate should not be notified about resigning active / returning to active state if URL is handled by the app itself.

Notes:
This behaviour violates app’s lifecycle, as it clearly doesn’t become active while URL is processed internally

Mu current workaround includes setting a boolean flag inside of -[UIApplicationDelegate application:openURL:sourceApplication:annotation:] and check for it in applicationDidBecomeActive which is not an optimal solution for many reasons.
