Description

There is a multi-platform app config <preference> for orientation, documented here: http://cordova.apache.org/docs/en/edge/config_ref_index.md.html#The%20config.xml%20File_global_preferences

CLI's android_parser.js specifically looks for this tag and updates AndroidManifest, but ios_parser.js does not. I think it should be updating the UISupportedInterfaceOrientations array in the app's plist.

(Also, generally the way we do orientations is pretty poor and could do with an overhaul, alas..)
