Title: Add enablePlugins(true) to appView for extra functionality

This pull request includes an update to DroidGap.java to enable plugins by default. The use case for this is to allow for additional functionality out-of-the-box without writing more Cordova plugins.

A specific advantage gained is the ability to use Flash to enable websockets, a positive workaround for the fizzled Websocket branch. Such libraries like the gimite/web-socket-js flash fallback can be used.

By enabling plugins by default, this will also enable more Cordova users who have many feature requests on platforms like PhoneGap Build.
