Add support for iOS contact groups
----------------------------------

                 Key: CB-223
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CB-223
             Project: Apache Callback
          Issue Type: New Feature
          Components: iOS
    Affects Versions: 1.4.0
         Environment: iOS
            Reporter: Robert La Ferla
            Assignee: Shazron Abdullah


Contacts on iOS are organized by group.  There is the default group "All 
Contacts" plus any custom groups that the user set up.  Contacts retrieved by 
Apache Cordova / phonegap do not contain which group they are in. 

CONTACT CATEGORIES PROPERTY

I believe that iOS groups are analogous to phonegap contact categories and thus 
should be mapped to them.  If not, another property should be created.

>From the Cordova docs:

"categories: An array of all the contacts user defined categories. 
(ContactField[])"


IOS IMPLEMENTATION NOTES:

In the iOS AddressBook API, the function ABAddressBookCopyArrayOfAllGroups() 
gets the list of groups.
