[Bug 1375163] [NEW] Stop and restart the camera automatically when app changes active state

 

Public bug reported:

At the moment when an application that started the camera stops becoming
active, the camera remains running and other applications can't use it.

The system should automatically detect when an app is being deactivate
and stop the camera, as a minimum.

To be symmetric, when the app gets activated again, it should also
restart it. However this might not be as simple since the camera might
have been re-configured by other apps so if we want the process to be
full automatic the state of the camera configuration should be saved and
restored as well.
