No Image Exif Data from @3[🐛]

See original GitHub issue

Description

When I use this library with ‘launchCamera’ or ‘launchImageLibrary’, I get response.uri. I put that into react-native-exif and it throws an error column '_data' does not exist. Available columns []. It worked fine when I used response.uri from version 2.X. After I upgrade it to version 3, error is thrown.

How to repeat issue and example

step to reproduce the issue

launchCamera({ mediaType: 'photo', maxWidth: 400, maxHeight: 400 }, (response) => {
  Exif.getExif(response.uri).catch(console.error); // error is thrown here
})

Solution

Needs to provide exif data.

Since I have upgraded to version 3 I have experienced rotation issues on some android devices. Exif/orientation data would be useful for fixing the rotation myself
