added ability to override capabilites from environment variables

[saikrishna321]

@anandbagmar How would you pass the app capability for both iOS real device and iOS Simulator?

[anandbagmar]

@saikrishna321 - if we want Platform specific updates, I can update the PR based on that.
Ex: to override any capability, set the env var as:
android.app=.... - which will update / add to the android config only. ]

Would that approach be better?

[saikrishna321]

@anandbagmar We need to change approach after this PR got merged #478

Now we will default to "app": {
"local": ".../../something.apk",
"cloud": "CloudURL to apk"
}

[anandbagmar]

Cool. Will take a look and update the PR

@anandbagmar This will be very helpful. I'm also stuck at this point. I have to use APK path from Bitrise CI. Would be really nice if you finish this

@saikrishna321 , @SrinivasanTarget - I have updated this PR. Here are some examples how to update the capabilities using environment variables:

• to update android's app path, set env var as:
  atd_android_app=<new path>
• To update a specific property as part of an array,
  atd_hostMachines_0_appiumServerPath=<new path>
• To update the 1st simulator's device name in the 1st hostMachine: atd_hostMachines_0_simulators_0_deviceName=<new name>

Let me know if this seems ok

[anandbagmar]

@saikrishna321 , @SrinivasanTarget - thanks for merging the PR. Any idea when will this be available via maven, and with what version #?

[saikrishna321]

The next version will be major release v12.0.0 - cloud support and contract change on app capability.

Once the docs are done we can release

[anandbagmar]

ok. Hopefully that happens soon :) Thanks!
