Remove cordova-plugin-compat as dependency -> deprecated for cordova-android 6.3.0

[Defcon0]

Hello,

would it be ok to remove this dependency in a future release?

Bye

Agreed. The dependency on cordova-plugin-compat should be removed since it's depreciated ( https://cordova.apache.org/news/2017/11/10/plugins-release.html ). I'm running into problems compiling with android platform 6.4.0 with the calendar plugin installed, and they go away when the calendar plugin is removed.

For now I've had to downgrade back to android platform 6.3.0 version.

Yep, the decency should be removed

ionic cordova plugin rm cordova-plugin-compat --save

Error: The plugin 'cordova-plugin-compat' is required by (cordova-plugin-calendar), skipping uninstallation. (try --force if trying to update)

[ERROR] An error occurred while running cordova plugin remove cordova-plugin-compat --save (exit code 1).

I tried to create a PR #430
