I did not realize that this was the design all along - of not looking into
parent directories. I like your idea of passing the path to the JSON file as a
single argument. I'm less inclined to do others:
1. 'codova prepare' creating -singing.properties file: There will require a
lot of platform specific logic being in cordova-lib and less than ideal.
2. Pass multiple command line parameters: Escaping complex arguments
correctly on command line might be tricky and messy.
From what I can understand, this results in two changes:
1. cordova-lib to pass path to build.json. Perhaps find a way to version
this change - so that older versions of the platforms do not see this
unexpected arg.
2. Android build script consuming this build.json and reading the `android`
section of it.
