Send camera changed intent explicitly to Camera2 app
Due to implicit broadcast restrictions starting in Android Oreo the
camera app doesn't receive the broadcast in its current setup. By
setting the component name to the camera app we can get around these
restrictions.
An alternative solution would be to register the BroadcastReceiver in
Camera2 during runtime, so the implicit broadcast restrictions wouldn't
affect us. This is the solution used in CameraSwapInfo.
