Feature Request

Describe the Feature Request

Not able to generate a local notification when the app is in the background because activity is needed to create LocalNotificationManager instance.

We are using it with our Native Code for android and generating notifications.

Platform Support Requested

• Android
• iOS
• Electron
• Web

Describe Preferred Solution

We should remove the activity as param and add context in the constructor.
We can remove usage of activity from LocalNotificationManager and can be replace activity with MainActivity.class.

@jcesarmobile the issue received reactions. How should we proceed? We're happy to provide a PR for the feature. But I would like to get a 👍 from the capacitor team to know that you support the PR

This feature would be useful when you have custom code to trigger notifications that you can use the capacitor library
