build: scope params cannot be set in profile

[dante]

the kwArg scopeDjConfig cannot be passed to the profile, at least not as you'd expect to be able to. if defined in a profile as an object, eg:

dependencies = {
	scopeDjConfig:{
		isDebug:true,
		scopeMap:[
			["dojo","d"],
			["dijit","dj"],
			["dojox","dx"]
		]
	}
}

the build dies with "replace in [object Object] undefined", which is being called by:

buildUtil.setScopeDjConfig = function(/*String*/fileContents, /*String*/djConfigString){

if you define the param as a string, eg:

dependencies = {
	scopeDjConfig:'{scopeMap:[["dojo","d"],["dijit","dj"],["dojox","dx"]]}'
}

the build seems to run ok. It would be more useful if one were able to define all kwArgs, though I partially understand the reasoning behind the use of strings explicitly.

Either way, I was trying to do this and didn't find anything in the way of guide of tutorial, so it should be explicitly documented whatever the outcome of this ticket is. Some kwArgs _can_ be put in the profile, scopeDjConfig _must_ be a string, etc.

(In [20400]) Refs #9035: scopeDjConfig needs to be a string, for now throw with an informative error, but in the future, just allow an object definition.
