Despite we allow users to configure the target SDK, I don’t think we should allow other than the default on latest cordova-android.
By allow I mean on issues, users are free to use whatever they want, but if they don’t use latest they should take care of possible problems themselves. With that being said, camera plugin requires latest cordova-android, so that means target sdk 29. But also we need to have in mind that if the plugin allowed older cordova-android versions and we add some code that requires a higher sdk than the default on that cordova-android version we should bump the dependency to the version that targets that sdk as default. BTW, sdk 29 is already a requirement for new apps since August, November is for existing apps.
