Asynchronously evaluates JavaScript in the context of the currently displayed page. If non-null, resultCallback will be invoked with any result returned from that execution. This method must be called on the UI thread and the callback will be made on the UI thread.

Compatibility note. Applications targeting android.os.Build.VERSION_CODES#N or later, JavaScript state from an empty WebView is no longer persisted across navigations like #loadUrl(String). For example, global variables and functions defined before calling #loadUrl(String) will not exist in the loaded page. Applications should use #addJavascriptInterface instead to persist JavaScript objects across navigations.
