Could the app return the result to other app #39

I would like my app can start the cfc with startActivityForResult, so cfc don't save the file, but just return the data to the caller.

It's not an easy change, but I'm hoping to move in this direction.

Specifically: the code in libcimbar reassembles the file in RAM (because that's how wirehair works) then writes to file on completion -- so this isn't a technical constraint, just an interface issue/change. Beyond being potentially helpful for other apps, returning the file in a memory buffer is also necessary (probably) for the webapp decoder.

I'm not sure what other work might be needed on the android app side afterwards. :thinking:
