Description

IDE's and other apps using cordova's APIs need a way to access project's metadata (platforms and plugins within config.xml) without going directly through the ConfigParser. They should be abstracted away from the storage details.

This modification is made even more important with the upcoming move to npm that is going to necessitate moving platforms and plugins infos to package.json.
