Update Cordova deps to latest

[StorytellerCZ]

Update Cordova deps to latest versions, starting with Android version to v11 for publication on Google Store as per #12448

I have just bumped the versions at this stage, haven't had time to testing yet and I don't have the resources & time to do in-depth testing so any feedback is appreciated.

LGTM, however we will need to change how we handle the splash screens for Android. Seems that the splash tag is deprecated and won't work with Android >= 12.

Looking at the changes, we would need to set the splash as a preference tag and use the new adaptive splash screen, but this would mean that we would drop the multiple splash screens sizes (hdpi, mdpi and etc) - which would be a breaking change. Seems that cordova has a fallback for that, but I'm not sure how it works.

Will try to help here.

@matheusccastroo please do any changes necessary.

@Grubba27 - Just started tracking this. Where does this stand in terms of getting it into the next release?

Hey @coachdan this still needs implementing what @matheusccastroo said:

I had not had enough time to spend on this issue, but would do something like this.

@Grubba27 can we please still get this into 2.13? It is necessary so that people can deploy to app stores.

I had not yet time because of Fibers, thought that someone of the community might help with more expertise in Cordova

Created a new PR to handle this issue: #12785

How about iOS? Will it be upgraded to 7.0.1?

[StorytellerCZ]

@Grubba27 I think we need here to sync the CircleCI commands from what was merged in #12785, then I think this will work.

[StorytellerCZ]

@osrl looking at the code, iOS is at v7.0.1, so that will definitely be in Meteor v2.14
