[🌟] Support `launchCamera` with mediaType `mixed` on iOS

[dylanpyle]

Description

iOS has a native UI for capturing any type of camera media in one place - e.g this is the interface that apps like iMessage open when selecting the image capture option. It looks like this:

However, react-native-image-picker only supports photo or video options to launchCamera, which limit the UI to only one media type. This looks like this:

It would be great to support the full "any media type" UI here. It looks like this was discussed and addressed for launchImageLibrary in https://github.com/react-native-image-picker/react-native-image-picker/issues/1527, but not for launchCamera

Proposed Solution

launchCamera({ mediaType: "mixed" }) should open the mixed media capture UI. Currently, calling this function is equivalent to passing mediaType: "photo"

Test Solution

DO we have support now for launchCamera({ mediaType: "mixed" }) ?

+1 Any updates on this? It will be nice to launch the camera and be able to switch from photo to video...

This is great but the ideal format should be this, which is the one that is used in Notes for example:
