iOS, a picture taken in the landscape orientation is captured as a portrait photo.

Describe the bug I might be doing something wrong, but pictures taken using iPhone X in the landscape orientation are captured as portrait photos. Android works correctly. I can not figure out how to take landscape picture in iOS. i tried to play with rotateWhenOrientationChanged without any luck.

To Reproduce Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. Start Preview

 const cameraPreviewOptions: CameraPreviewOptions = {
            position: 'rear',
            parent: 'cameraPreview',
            className: 'cameraPreview',
            rotateWhenOrientationChanged: true,
            toBack: true,
            storeToFile: true,
        };

        await CameraPreview.start(cameraPreviewOptions);

1. Rotate the phone into the landscape
2. Capture the photo

const cameraPreviewPictureOptions: CameraPreviewPictureOptions = {
            quality: 90,
        };

        const result = await CameraPreview.capture(cameraPreviewPictureOptions);

1. Captured image will be a portrait image with the picture rotated 90 degrees. Essentially its impossible to capture landscape image in iOS

Expected behavior Captured image should be landscape

@orest Were you able to test this? I’d like to merge it into the next release if it’s working.
