CB-9426 Fix exception using device orientation plugin on browser platform
Initially reported for the `device motion` plugin, the same problem exists
for the `device orientation` plugin.
The plugin's `plugin.xml` defines a general `<js-module>` with the name
`compass`. It defines another `<js-module>` for the `browser` platform (that
merges with the general module) with the same name. Modules with the same name
are not allowed, so Cordova throws an exception at runtime when trying to
define the browser version of the module.
Since the only difference in the browser version of the module is to fake
up `deviceorientation` events, I've deleted the browser version and added that
logic to the general module, with the following change: rather than starting a
new event timer every time `watchHeading()` is called (which could happen
multiple times resulting in multiple superfluous timers), we have a single
event timer going as long as there are active watchers.
