Need documentation for not supported features

I definitely noticed the returned headers where missing, as I was just this
minute about to look for them.

Cheers,

This plugin is great to provide (at last) some way to implement
certificate pinning into Cordova-based applications. The SSLCertificateChecker
plugin
https://github.com/EddyVerbruggen/SSLCertificateChecker-PhoneGap-Plugin
is another one but it only allows one-time checks.

However, I think that it would be good to document som of the features not
available as developers may think that they could replace their Ajax (or
equivalent) calls with this plugin.

Based on quick tests I found the following as not supported:

• cookies support (a cookie set by a request isn't sent in subsequent
  requests)
• read content of error responses (only the HTTP status code and
  message are returned)
• read returned HTTP headers (e.g. in case security tokens are
  returned as headers)

I also had a good surprise when seeing that pinning issuing CA
certificates was supported too, so that applications don't have to be
updated in case server certificates are renewed by using the same CA. It
may be good to add it to the documentation.

If my comments above are valid (they are only based on quick tests), I can
propose changes to the README file to bring my own contribution to this
great piece of work.

These issues all seem valid to me. I would gladly accept a PR pointing them out in the README. Thanks
