Query the gpl table and get GPL information of a given list of Bioconductor microarry annotation packages. Note currently the GEOmetadb does not contains all the mappings, but we are trying to construct a relative complete list.

1	getBiocPlatformMap(con, bioc='all')

`con`	Connection to the GEOmetadb.sqlite database
`bioc`	Character vector of Biocondoctor microarry annotation packages, e.g. c('hgu133plus2','hgu95av2'). 'all' returns all mappings.

A six-column data.frame including GPL title, GPL accession, bioc_package, manufacturer, organism, data_row_count.

## Use the demo GEOmetadb database:
if( !file.exists("GEOmetadb.sqlite") ) {
    demo_sqlfile <- getSQLiteFile(destdir = getwd(), destfile = "GEOmetadb.sqlite.gz", type = "demo")
} else {
    demo_sqlfile <- "GEOmetadb.sqlite"
}

con <- dbConnect(SQLite(), demo_sqlfile)
getBiocPlatformMap(con)[1:5,]
getBiocPlatformMap(con, bioc=c('hgu133a','hgu95av2'))
dbDisconnect(con)
