feat(android): allow for photo and video capturing and filter for media type for file uploads (onShowFileChooser)

[alexgerardojacinto]

Description

• This PR expands the functionality we offer in onShowFileChooser, which is responsible for handling requests for the file chooser from the web page open in the WebView, typically for upload scenarios.
• More specifically, on Android we now allow the user to take a photo, record a video, or select a file (photo, video, or other).
• Note that our goal here was to achieve feature parity between Android and iOS, given that on iOS the user was already able to do all of this.

Tests

Testing this with an app called RMET-4462 TestMob that is available on our O11 environment. It basically opens another OutSystems Reactive Web app (RMET-4462 TestReactive) using our InAppBrowser plugin's OpenInWebView feature.

Once you open the web view, you'll see the Upload Widget being used in multiple ways.

Refer to the screen recordings below to see how you can test.
