Description

# Feature Request

## Motivation Behind Feature

cordova-ios has a `wwwFolderName` to configure the name of the folder where the cordova app is loaded (defaults to www).
On Android the www is hardcoded in several places.

## Feature Description

note that on cordova-ios it's only configurable with code, so not meant to be changed from config.xml, is for when integrating cordova into native projects.

## Alternatives or Workarounds

Research direction

Start by locating the Android code paths where the `www` folder is hardcoded, then compare them with cordova-ios's `wwwFolderName` behavior. The work is done when native integrations can configure the assets folder name in code, while the existing default behavior remains unchanged and config.xml is not required.
