Is it possible to somehow retrieve the name of the app which launched Share Extension? #88

Hello, and thanks for a fantastic project! I have this up and running on both platforms.

One question I have - is it possible inside the Share Extension to have access to the application which opened the Share Extension in the first place?

I am building an image-based application, and I'd like to keep track of which applications each of the images came from, if possible. First, I'm not sure if this is possible on a platform-level. Second, even if it is, it doesn't seem like this lib exposes that info right now. I'd be happy to put together a PR!
