Failed to retrieve default CameraXConfig.Provider from meta-data🐛

[liancp]

What were you trying to do?

I configured FileProvider in AndroidManifest, which will cause errors in CameraXConfig.Provider.Operate as follows:

<application>

   ......

    <provider
        android:name="androidx.core.content.FileProvider"
        android:authorities="${applicationId}.provider"
        android:exported="false"
        android:grantUriPermissions="true">
        <meta-data
            android:name="android.support.FILE_PROVIDER_PATHS"
            android:resource="@xml/file_paths" />
    </provider>

</application>

file_paths.xml:

Reproduceable Code

// TODO: This uses the Camera2 API to list all characteristics of a camera device and therefore doesn't work with Camera1. Find a way to use CameraX for this
  // https://issuetracker.google.com/issues/179925896
  @ReactMethod
  fun getAvailableCameraDevices(promise: Promise) {
    val startTime = System.currentTimeMillis()
    coroutineScope.launch {
      withPromise(promise) {
        val cameraProvider = ProcessCameraProvider.getInstance(reactApplicationContext).await()
        val extensionsManager = ExtensionsManager.getInstanceAsync(reactApplicationContext, cameraProvider).await()
        ProcessCameraProvider.getInstance(reactApplicationContext).await()

        ......

      }
    }
  }

What happened instead?

Hey! I've rewritten the entire Android codebase of VisionCamera from CameraX to Camera2 in the efforts of ✨ VisionCamera V3.

I just now completed the Camera2 rewrite and I believe the core structure is running, but there might be some edge cases to iron out. Can you try and test the PR #1674 for me to see if you can still reproduce this issue here?

Here's an instruction on how you can test that: #1674 (comment)

If the issue cannot be reproduced with that version/PR anymore, then hoorayy, I fixed it! 🎉
Otherwise please let me know and I'll keep this issue open to keep track of it.

Thank you!
