device.openURL pops-up a system alert which can't be turned off with Detox

device.openURL pops-up a system alert which can't be turned off with Detox, it doesn't appear in View hierarchy.
This happens only for the first device.openURL and fails all tests because the app is stuck with the alert. However, if you press Open, the next time you run the tests, the alert doesn't appear and tests pass.

Here's the screenshot of the alert and view hierarchy:

Fixed in master.
Please notice there is an API change. device.openURL() now expects to receive a JSON object with at least url key provided with an appropriate value. Other key that can be included is sourceApp, which signals the owner app which app opened it with this URL.

@silyevsk This is blocking for people. If the "open sim not through fbsimctl" effort cannot be resolved today, let's please revert and create a release including this fix, so we can let people work. Thanks

@LeoNatan the fbsimctl thing didn't require a change in detox - it happened due to an old fbsimctl version.

Great. Let’s release a new version.
