Description

Enable developers to choose whether to use Backbone 0.9x or 1.x. The default should be 1.x. Support for the older version would be to provide backward compatibility for existing projects that depend on 0.9x behaviors or functionality.

    PR : https://github.com/appcelerator/alloy/pull/561 Function test: 1. Create an app, specify backbone version in config.json, "backbone": "0.9.2" 2. Compile the app, i.e. android and in project dir type: 
    head Resources/android/alloy/backbone.js
    The correct backbone version should be shown. 
    //     Backbone.js 0.9.2
     3. Existing sample apps under test/apps/models/* should run without error. 4. test/apps/models/bindings_listview should run without error on backbone v1.1.2 5. For test/models/todo to run properly on backbone 1.1.2, uncomment the code in model JS that override collection's fetch method Note: default backbone version is 0.9.2

    Using backbone 1.1.2, the models/todo app does not work properly. I cannot add a new to do task, marking an item as completed throws an "undefined is not and object (evaluating todo.set)" error.

    PR merged. For QE test: 1. Run any of the test/apps/models/* test apps. All should run without error 2. Run the models/binding_listview app and then enter the head command described in Feon's comment above; it should show backbone version 0.9.2. 3. Edit test/apps/models/binding_listview/config.json to add a new key: "backbone": "1.1.2". Edit test/apps/models/binding_listview/models/info.js and uncomment the block as described in the comments in that file. Build and run the app and it should run properly without errors. 4. Run the head command again to confirm that the app was built using backbone 1.1.2.

    Verified fixed using: Titanium SDK 4.0.0.v20150323131014 Studio 4.0.0.201503231407 Appc NPM: 0.3.34 Appc CLI 0.2.187 Alloy 1.6.0-alpha You can correctly set the backbone version in config.js. However, 1.X is not the default.
