Description

Cordova uses cordova-fetch for fetching modules by default now. In the next major version, lets drop the older methods. This is great for reducing maintenance in cordova. Original fetch proposal is at https://github.com/cordova/cordova-discuss/pull/33

remove --nofetch option
remove lazy_load
remove gitclone.js
remove npm dependency
remove remoteload.js

update anywhere that these files are used

Proposal: https://github.com/apache/cordova-discuss/pull/76
