Describe the bug

Currently trying to open a link only gives an option to run the app instead of opening it in the app if it is running in multitask mode, having links open in the app if running in multitask mode directly would be a better option (or if app is not launched then launching it in multitask mode if it is enabled).

Instructions to reproduce

1- Paste link in LiveContainer.
2- Open the link in the currently running app in multitask mode or prompt the user to open it by launching the app in multitask mode if enabled.

What version of LiveContainer and iOS are you using?

Version 3.6.0-Release (main/f88a005) - iOS 26 Developer Beta 9

Other info

No response

Implemented in 8c625d3. Now you can use the same Open URL button in LiveContainer to pass URL scheme to multitask app, whether running or not. Note that opening URL scheme from another multitask app is not yet implemented.

Cross-app URL opening is now available in 3.7.0. Make sure to turn on Redirect URL Schemes to Host LiveContainer to use this.
