[CB-8971] 'Duplicate cordova' check breaks Ripple

Description

Ripple defines a setter for window.cordova so it can intercapt the cordova object being created, and patch cordova.exec. This breaks the new 'duplicate cordova' check, which looks for 'cordova' in window, which will return true in Ripple. The alternative, window.cordova, will work, since that remains undefined in Ripple.
