> (windows platform)
> When defining device capabilities for a plugin on the Windows platform, the {{m2}} namespace is required when targeting Windows 8.1:
> {noformat}
> <config-file target="package.appxmanifest" parent="/Package/Capabilities">
>     <m2:DeviceCapability Name="bluetooth.genericAttributeProfile" />
> </config-file>
> {noformat}
> However, that namespace isn't valid for the Windows 10 Universal project's {{appxmanifest}} file, where no namespace should be specified for these elements.
> It is possible to work around this by using the new {{versions}} attribute added in Cordova 5.0.0:
> {noformat}
> <config-file target="package.appxmanifest" parent="/Package/Capabilities" versions="<10.0.0">
>     <m2:DeviceCapability Name="bluetooth.genericAttributeProfile" />
> </config-file>
> <config-file target="package.appxmanifest" parent="/Package/Capabilities" versions=">=10.0.0">
>     <DeviceCapability Name="bluetooth.genericAttributeProfile" />
> </config-file>
> {noformat}
> However, that becomes very messy and error-prone when there are lots of entries (and will also completely break the build on Cordova versions prior to 5.0.0).
> It would be nice if we could somehow handle this automatically (for example, check for the {{m2}} namespace when adding elements to the Windows 10 {{appxmanifest}} and remove it).
