Gorkem is adding awesome feature to restore plugins/platforms your app
depends on.  There is some debate on the correct syntax to use in the
config.xml file: do we use (a) plugin.xml style <dependency> tags, or (b)
w3c widget spec <feature> tags?

Gorkem votes (b), arguing that using widget spec helps his tools with
editing config.xml (existing gui editor, I assume?), and has implemented a
PR for it (https://github.com/apache/cordova-cli/pull/165).

I vote (a), arguing that we already don't match widget spec, and already
have established syntax for for specifying plugin urls & versions in
plugin.xml (with docs and examples), and its better for our CLI
implementation to use existing plugin deps handlers.

What do you think?
