Support for cordova-android >= v7 without any workaround

Features

• Android: Support for cordova-android >= v7 without any workaround (#716, #599)

Breaking change

If you already have the workaround in the config.xml of your application, you have to remove it respectively you need to remove the following piece of code of your config.xml:

<config-file parent="/resources" target="./res/values/strings.xml">		
    <string name="fb_app_id">123456789</string>		
    <string name="fb_app_name">myApplication</string>		
</config-file>

Side notes

Also note that this improvements is backwards compatible, if you use cordova-android < v7 you should still be able to use the plugin.

Kudos

Thank you Adrian Pascu for the PR and support 👍
