Right now, the custom URL scheme is used to re-open back the app when it launched an SSO attempt is configured in the local mobile plugin.

This makes impossible to support at the same time both customs or the official app.

This can be easily solved passing an extra parameter to the launch script (urlscheme=mycustomapp for example)

This will require changes in both the app and local_mobile:

App: Add the config.json custom URL scheme as a parameter
Local_mobile: Rename the urlscheme to forcedurlscheme or similar, to indicate that in case is indicated the app will be opened always using that scheme
