DietPi-Config | Enabling RPi camera has no effect

Still not sure why the dietpi-config menu wasn't able to apply the change, but I'm up and running, now.

Missing package on current image:

• libraspberrypi-bin.

This also breaks DietPi Cam installation in dietpi-software:

• libraspberrypi-bin generates the /opt/vc/bin folder which is not made during dietpi-software install. Therefore raspimjpeg never gets installed.

🈯️ Confirmed faulty camera module. Ordered Camera V2, working fine.
