Set Camera Permissions to Use Barcode Scanner

The native apps (Android or iOS) must have the necessary permissions to access the device camera for the barcode scanner functionality. When you try to use the Barcode scanner for the first time, if the camera permissions are missing, the app prompts for the permission.
