Summary:
When creating an app with a WatchKit extension, once should not have to manually change the version and builder number 3 times.

Steps to Reproduce:
- Create an app with a WatchKit extension.
- Update the main app’s target version or build number.
- Attempt to submit the app to iTunes Connect.

Expected Results:
The application and its extensions are accepted, using the version and build number we just set.

Actual Results:
Application is rejected for having different versions and/or build numbers. We have to set these 2 constants in THREE different places in the project (3!!): the app target, the watch extension, and the watch app. Failing to do so is only detected when the app is reviewed in iTunes Connect.

Regression:
This is a regression compared to other IDEs that actually make sense.
