title: cordova edit-config not updating AndroidManifest.xml
body: <p>I am trying to update the <code>AndroidManifest.xml</code> file with the following in config.xml:</p>
  
  <pre><code>&lt;platform name="android"&gt;
    &lt;edit-config file="app/src/main/AndroidManifest.xml" mode="merge" target="/manifest/application"&gt;
    &lt;application android:icon="@mipmap/appicons" android:roundIcon="@mipmap/appicons_round" /&gt;
    &lt;/edit-config&gt;
  &lt;/platform&gt;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>and it doesn't update anything. I tried to remove the full path and just leave it as file="app/src/main/AndroidManifest.xml" and that's also not working. I am using command line with Android 7.0.0 and I'm absolutely lost.</p>
  
  <p>Both <code>config.xml</code> and <code>AndroidManifest.xml</code> pass XML tests.</p>
  
  <p>If I update AndroidManifest.xml manually with the changes, the app runs fine and all changes are visible, but I believe that's not the proper way of doing it.</p>
  
  <p>I am completely lost..</p>
  
  <p>UPDATE:
  Could it be related to this?
