Android Update wants Camera Permissions

It looks like they recently added scanning QR codes as a way to import tunnel definitions: https://git.zx2c4.com/wireguard-android/commit/?id=2087a10f5533e4b61811a3cb4e5019dcf2560d81

That permission should probably only be requested as-needed but I suspect that wg is targeting an older Android API that doesn't expose that capability.
