Automatically convert manifest.json fields to corresponding iOS meta tags #7544

Description

@FezVrasta

Is your proposal related to a problem?

On iOS, Safari doesn't make use of the manifest.json icons, splash screen, and other settings. Instead, it expects some special meta tags in the HTML page.

Describe the solution you'd like

It would be very useful if CRA included some webpack plugin that automatically reads the manifest.json entries and injects the needed HTML tags in the index.html page.

Describe alternatives you've considered

N/A

Additional context

I know there are some plugins such as webpack-pwa-manifest, but they require a special format that then generates both the manifest.json and the HTML tags.

I think it would make more sense if the plugin directly read the manifest.json settings instead, so that we don't tie the users to a custom syntax.
