   ### Motivation and Context
   <!-- Why is this change required? What problem does it solve? -->
   <!-- If it fixes an open issue, please link to the issue here. -->
   
   Remove the require block for `cordova/plugin/android/polling`, a module that 
doesn't exist.
   
   Resolves #1735 
   
   ### Description
   <!-- Describe your changes in detail -->
   
   The `cordova/plugin/android/polling` module appears to have been removed 
since 2012.
   
   The last known version of Cordova-JS where this module existed was 
**[cordova-js@2.1.0 - 
polling.js](https://github.com/apache/cordova-js/blob/2.1.0/lib/android/plugin/android/polling.js)**
 in the `polling.js` file, with the version tag created on Sep 13, 2012.
   
   The module was removed in `cordova-js@2.2.0rc1`, a tag/release created on 
Oct 16, 2012.
   
   The **[exact 
commit](https://github.com/apache/cordova-js/commit/01a2683adffd6198f6d28344b1d2c87ba98023b7)**
 that removed the module from Cordova-JS does not have an associated PR, GitHub 
issue, or CB ticket to explain the reason for this change.
   
   Additionally, the platform-specific Cordova-JS modules, which reside in the 
`cordova-js-src` directory of this repository ([originally labeled as 
`platform_modules`](https://github.com/apache/cordova-android/commit/828edb3a439ace4ecd169ee8e87a93418fc623b9)),
 were not created until 2015—2 years and 4 months later. This directory has 
also never contained the polling module as far as I can see.
   
   Since this part of the code has not been functional since 2012, I believe it 
is safe to remove it.
