To delete these files the user has to explicitly run the `clean` script from platforms\android\cordova. This made me think about other scenarios as well for CLI workflow: 1. cordova build <nopackageInfo> 2. cordova build <packageInfo> 3. cordova build <nopackageInfo> The third invocation will use the pacakgeInfo from the previous invocation as I do not delete debug-signing.properties & release-signing.properies. I can make this a bit more sophisticated to account for non-CLI workflows - detect if the file is auto-generated (It has the canned comment ("Do not modify this file -- YOUR CHANGES WILL BE ERASED")). If it is then I go ahead and delete it not only on `clean` but also when starting a build with no package info specified.
