[Feature Request] Support for Sharing Web URL Source Along with Selected Text in Safari

[orlan-spaceduck]

Current Behavior:

• The share extension allows users to select and share text from Safari, but the shared content only includes the selected text.
• There doesn't seem to be a way to attach the URL of the page from which the text was selected.

Desired Behavior:

• When users select text in Safari and share it through my React Native app using this library, I would like to have the ability to include the URL of the webpage where the text was selected.
• This would help provide more context to the shared text, making it easier for the app to offer better user experiences (e.g., showing the original source of the text).

Example Use Case:

1. User opens a Safari page.
2. User selects text and clicks "Share."
3. The React Native app receives both the selected text and the webpage URL as part of the shared content.
4. The app can now use the webpage URL for further actions (e.g., showing a link preview).
   

Questions:

• Is it technically feasible to implement this feature in the current share extension implementation?
• If possible, can you provide some guidance or point me to the relevant areas in the codebase that might need modifications?

that would be great indeed, not sure it's possible, have to check.

We currently retrieve the text from the custom view here:

expo-share-intent/plugin/src/ios/ShareExtensionViewController.swift

Line 57 in 89f1686

private func handleText(content: NSExtensionItem, attachment: NSItemProvider, index: Int) async {
