             Summary: pauseTimers() called too aggressively on Android

          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Android

Couple of issues:
1. pauseTimers(), although an instance method, actually applies to all webviews
2. pauseTimers() is always being called during startActivityForResult(), even though there's no reason to do this.

Proposed changes:
- Pause timers during a startActivityForResult only when KeepRunning preference is false (this should happen anyways, since the activity's onPause is fired in this case)
- 4.0.x branch: Create a setGloballyPauseTimers(boolean) on CordovaWebview interface in 4.0.x that is documented to have the same semantics as WebView.pause/resume timers. 
- 4.0.x branch: Move the pausing & resuming into CordovaActivity, rather than passing it as a boolean to the onPause() function
