support contextBridge api

See original GitHub issue

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

we need to use preload script or nodeIntegration option to use electron-redux. I think preload script is ideal for security perspective. I often load application hosted on local server while developing(I believe it is common usecase). but application can not be loaded as preload script in this way. It requires us to additional branch.

Describe the solution you’d like

I propose to support contextBridge api. I am assuming expose simple api that communicate with main process using ipcRenderer api through contextBridge. in this way, application on renderer process can use electron-redux regardless it is loaded through local server or preload script.

@musou1500 @Slapbox I think we could support contextBridge in v2, since right now communication is all done with ipc (ipcRenderer & ipcMain only)
