Be sure that Camera picker lib isn't asking for "Take photos" permission when a user is just trying to select a photo

Right now, it seems that we request camera permissions even just to pick a photo.

We should be able to break that out so a user doesn't have to provide it if not needed.

This seems to be just and Android issue? I can't reproduce on sim or device running iOS.

Confirmed, this is an Android issue, and is documented here: https://github.com/react-community/react-native-image-picker/issues/828. There is a linked fork that fixes this (along with other fixes). We should discuss moving to that fork, or rolling out our own version (based on that fork perhaps?).
