[Bug 1232118] [NEW] Don't read manifest files directly

[Ted Gould]

Public bug reported:


Upstart App Launch and URL Dispatcher are finding the manifest files and reading them to check versions and find applications.  They shouldn't be finding the files at all and should be asking click for the manifests.  So this bug is to track the overall change as Click doesn't yet have an interface to get the manifest for a package.
