CB-4891: Fixing errors in 3.1.0 and edge regarding connection permissions

>                 Key: CB-4891
>                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CB-4891
>             Project: Apache Cordova
>          Issue Type: Improvement
>          Components: Android, Docs, mobile-spec
>    Affects Versions: 2.9.0
>            Reporter: Peter
>            Priority: Minor

> The Connections API says that READ_PHONE_STATE permission is needed.
> {quote}
> <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.READ_PHONE_STATE" />

> But READ_PHONE_STATE is not in the *bin/template/project/AndroidManifest.xml* (of the cordova-android.zip). So a newly create mobile-spec test suite project does not have this permission enabled (which seems to conflict with the API documentation), yet it seems to work OK without it. So is this permission really needed or not?
