Sarah Goldman updated CB-9980:
------------------------------
    Description: 
This is based on a pull request I submitted here: 
https://github.com/apache/cordova-plugin-camera/pull/117

I would like to add a new function that allows one to dismiss any camera 
popover views and view controllers on iOS. I encountered a need for this 
function when implementing a timeout based logout on my app. If the user timed 
out while sitting there with the camera open, I had no way to close the camera 
view controller and it would stay open on top of the login page. When they 
finally took a photo it would exit the camera and they would be on the login 
page. I would like to be able to call navigator.camera.dismiss() before I send 
a user to the login view after the timeout.

dismiss would not take any callback handlers, instead it triggers the error 
callback set with getPicture and sends a message stating the camera was 
dismissed.
