Description
Expected behavior
If I use the WordPress app with a self-hosted site, I expect to be able to share to the app when it comes up as a sharing target on my device.
Actual behavior
The share extension was implemented first for WordPress.com/Jetpack sites (see https://github.com/wordpress-mobile/WordPress-iOS/issues/2231 and https://github.com/wordpress-mobile/WordPress-iOS/pull/4928). It is not yet available for self-hosted (non-Jetpack) sites — instead I am prompted to log in to a WordPress.com or Jetpack site.
Screenshot
Tested on iPhone 6, iOS 10.2.1, WPiOS 6.8

Research direction
Start by reading the linked WordPress-iOS issue #2231 and pull request #4928 to understand the existing share extension behavior. Verify how the extension handles self-hosted, non-Jetpack sites; done means shared content reaches those sites without prompting for a WordPress.com or Jetpack login.
