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.
