    CB-6698: Support library references for Android via the framework tag

    The framework tag can be contain the following attributes:
    	
    * **src** - (**required**) relative path to the directory containing the referenced library project.
    * **custom** - (optional) specifies how to treat **src**. If **true** it is a relative path from the application project's directory, otherwise -- the Android SDK directory.
    * **parent** - (optional) relative path to the directory containing the project to which to add the reference. The default is the application project.
    
    Example: A plugin that installs a library (**FeedbackLib**) which refers another library from the Android SDK (**appcompat**)
    
    ```xml
    <source-file src="src/android/FeedbackLib" target-dir="./" />
    
    <framework src="FeedbackLib" custom="true" />
    <framework src="extras/android/support/v7/appcompat" parent="FeedbackLib" />
    ```

> Make plugman capable of referencing an Android library project from within a plugin. 
> Currently there's no viable way to do it and it is becoming common to try to circumvent this limitation by abusing *plugin.xml* to (try to) merge a library's resources, code and configuration. (see https://github.com/wildabeast/BarcodeScanner)
