Error calling startActivity() on RNFetchBlob.android.actionViewIntent to intent files.

Warning:
Error: Calling startActivity() from outside of an Activity context requires the FLAG_ACTIVITY_NEW_TASK flag.

Versions:

• rn-fetch-blob: 0.10.16
• react-native: 0.60.4

Code:

.fetch('GET', adj.url, {Authorization:`Bearer ${newToken}`})
.then((res) => {
  if (adj.tipus_mime == 'application/pdf') {
    RNFetchBlob.android.actionViewIntent(res.path(), 'application/pdf')
  }
  else {
    // ....
  }
}).catch((err) => {/*   ...   */});

It downloads the file correctly but when executing RNFetchBlob.android.actionViewIntent() it rises an error due to a lack of a flag. I've seen the same error in this issue: #317 and the solution proposed is to add intent.addFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_NEW_TASK); inside android/src/main/java/com/RNFetchBlob/RNFetchBlob.java file. The problem is that this folder android/src/main/java/com/RNFetchBlob does not exist in my project.

Edit note: This code worked properly in previous versions of Android but not in Android 9.

@joan3pastor Pls look into this it may helps you - #317

Closing coz of redundancy. #317 solved my problem by it would be nice to merge those changes to main branch.
