Description

In tiapp.xml, we need to allow specification for background modes that are allowable in the Info.plist. Should be an easy mod since background modes could occur within the tag and then be processed that way. Going to have to work with the Android team on it, maybe.

To test:
- Create a new titanium project, 'bgmodes'
- Copy KS 'Resources' into its resources
- Replace 'tiapp.xml' with the attached tiapp.xml
- Run 'Phone->Sound->Local' and click 'play'
- Put the app in the background, sound should continue playing
Also:
- Check Info.plist file -- Should have UIBackgroundModes key with two values in array: audio, location

Replaced KS tiapp.xml with the one provided by Stephen Tramer.
Checked build/iphone/Info.plist and UIBackgroundMode key has two values: audio, and location.

Tested on iPhone 4 (4.2.1) and works as expected: music plays while app is in the background
