Title: Manifest update

ManifestUpdateMojo modifies the original manifest, which could create issues if
the plugin is bound to the build process, especially during releases.

The new approach allows to create a copy of the manifest (usually
${project.build.directory}/AndroidManifest.xml) that can be used later to create
the APK.

This creates the possibility to use buildnumber-maven-plugin or other
extension if desired.
