iOS: Added support for iOS 8 LaunchScreen NIBs.

iOS 8 introduces LaunchScreen NIBs which use autolayout to handle all devices and orientations with a single NIB instead of multiple launch images. This is also the only way to get the App Store badge "Optimized for iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus". So if the application is running on iOS 8 or greater AND has specified a LaunchScreen in their Info.plist, this patch will use the NIB as the launch screen. Otherwise, the code falls back to the legacy code path.

Note: Upon audit of the legacy path, it appears that it does not properly handle the UILaunchImages Info.plist convention. I've added comments inline to the code about this. However, in about a year from now, nobody is going to care about this path since everybody should be using LaunchScreen NIBs.
