Create better docs about Android permissions
See original GitHub issueAt the moment the base app includes all the permissions required by core plugins and some other Web APIs, but if the user doesn’t use those plugins or APIs he can safely remove the permissions.
We should document this better as it can cause confusion or users publishing apps with more permissions than required.
In special we should document camera permissions as it’s not even required by camera plugin, nor for input file with capture attribute as both use an intent to the camera and that doesn’t need a permission. It’s only required if using navigator.getUserMedia
to capture the camera feed.

Capacitor apps ship with all the core plugins included, that means the code that requires those usage descriptions is present despite you might not be using it. If you are not really using it, it’s safe to ignore, Apple is telling you to be aware of it or in case you forgot, because if you use it but don’t add the usage descriptions the app will crash. But if you are not using it nothing bad will happen.
About the push entitlement, that warning can be disabled, see https://capacitor.ionicframework.com/docs/apis/push-notifications#disabling-push-notifications-plugin
