Camera intent for Android 11

Warning: This may result in your app being banned from the store.
So maybe it's best to only use this when making apps that won't be publish on the store anyway.

Since Android 11, it's no longer possible to fire a image-capture Intent, and expect an IntentChooser to pop up automatically.
For reasons, Google decided that it's better to always launch the pre-installed camera app, instead of let the user have a choice. To make it harder for developers to give this choice back to the user, they've crippled the IntentResolver, so it doesn't return any results when querying.

This library gives that choice back to the user.
We just work around the whole IntentResolver, and read the AndroidManifest.xml's directly, to find out which IntentFilters there are.

How to use:

Add jitpack.io in your root build.gradle at the end of repositories:

	allprojects {
		repositories {
			...
			maven { url 'https://jitpack.io' }
		}
	}

Add the dependency

	dependencies {
	        implementation 'com.github.frankkienl:Camera11:1.0'
	}

Call Camera11.openCamera from an Activity

//in an Activity
Camera11.openCamera(activity, MediaStore.ACTION_IMAGE_CAPTURE, outputUri, requestCode);
