[Feature Request]: Upload asset or kit photo on checkout/check-in

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

I work in the education sector and our current implementation of Snipe-IT is for asset association to Students and Staff. As part of that process, we take a condition report of the device and put it in the check-in/checkout notes which has been fine for most use cases. The problem is when historical condition reports needs visual confirmation. The same is true of kits that get checked out/in. Damaged assets result in a charge that a parent or staff member needs to pay. Currently we have to manage this is a separate system as many times parents will dispute damages. I feel that having this store in the one place would not only benefit myself but a lot of other users in different industries, especially those types of uses who flatly deny not receiving something when they got their device/s.

Describe the solution you'd like

On the checkout/check-in form, have the option to take a photo or upload a photo to the device. The "Take a photo" option opens are windows that uses the devices camera or webcam. Taking the photo provides confirmation to accept the photo, retake it or add another photo. Once confirmation is received, the photo/s is uploaded to the check out/in record of the device. The upload a photo allows you to upload an image/images of the device.

Describe alternatives you've considered

The ability to upload a single or multiple images during checkout/check-in. Integration with the devices camera/webcam would be nice but basic upload functionality would be more important.
