fix: alerts could freeze the application

[dpogue]

Platforms affected

iOS

Motivation and Context

Closes GH-1120.
Closes GH-1121.
Closes GH-1429.

Description

In cases where the system was presenting something on the screen (such as a permission prompt, or an undo dialog) or in cases where the CDVViewController was not the root view controller (such as in a tabbed navigator), trying to show any dialogs triggered from the WebView would attempt to create an alert on the root view controller and get the view hierarchy into a bad state.

Now, we only try to display alerts on the CDVViewController that owns the WebView. This means that alerts can potentially end up behind other system dialogs, but the view controller no longer freezes.

(As an aside, having access to the CDVViewController here will be helpful for some future things too...)

Testing

Tested manually by triggering an alert while a permission prompt was being displayed and confirmed that the app continued working as expected.

This will still cause issues like not allowing to stack multiple alerts or not showing them if a view controller is present (i.e. InAppBrowser or Camera).
In Dialogs plugin we have a helper function that gets the top view controller, but not sure if it could cause the freezing issue mentioned here.
