Description

**Describe the bug**
If Element receives a contact sharing intent from my phone book app, a toast with the message “Couldn't handle share data” is shown and Element aborts.

**To Reproduce**

1. Go into the phone book app
2. Select a contact, click on share
3. Select element from the list of apps
4. See error

**Expected behavior**
I expect Element to correctly handle this intent. Sharing contacts using the plus button from within Element works for me, but coming from the phone book app it doesn't work.

**Smartphone:**
- Device: OnePlus One
- OS: Cyanogen 12.1.1

**Additional context**
- App version and store: 1.0.14 Play Store
