Description

Capability declarations for Windows (UAP 10.0 and others) are not merged into the resulting package.appxmanifest files of the windows project.

To reproduce:

1. cordova create windows-cat-test
2. Add the following entry to config.xml (this snippet would work in a plugin.xml of a cordova plugin):

<platform name="windows">
  <config-file target="package.appxmanifest" parent="/Package/Capabilities">
    <Capability Name="privateNetworkClientServer" />
  </config-file>
</platform>

3. cordova platform add windows
=> The privateNetworkClientServer Capability is not merged into any package.appxmanifest
