[X] bug report

Current behavior:
I'm migrating my code from an Ionic v3 app to Ionic v4 app, the same piece of code regarding the camera plugin doesn't work. I don't face any error at build time or at run time, I've no log information but when I take a picture or try to update a photo from the gallery on my real iPhons 6s / iOS 11.4 the resulting photo is a 0x0 pixels photo

Expected behavior:
Being able to use the camera plugin as I do in my Ionic v3 app

Steps to reproduce:

1. Use the following code (see related code)
2. In an Ionic v4 app
3. Using 5.0.0-beta.14

Related code:

import {Camera, CameraOptions, CameraPopoverOptions} from '@ionic-native/camera/ngx';

    const popoverOptions: CameraPopoverOptions = {
        x: 250,
        y: 430,
        width: 100,
        height: 200,
        arrowDir: this.camera.PopoverArrowDirection.ARROW_LEFT
    };

    const options: CameraOptions = {
        quality: 100,
        destinationType: this.camera.DestinationType.FILE_URI,
        sourceType: this.camera.PictureSourceType.CAMERA,
        allowEdit: false,
        encodingType: this.camera.EncodingType.JPEG,
        targetWidth: 1280,
        targetHeight: 1280,
        mediaType: this.camera.MediaType.PICTURE,
        correctOrientation: true,
        saveToPhotoAlbum: false,
        cameraDirection: this.camera.Direction.BACK,
        popoverOptions: popoverOptions
    };

    this.camera.getPicture(options).then((imageURI: string) => {
        console.log(imageURI);
     });

Console.log
Console.log gives the following result:

 file:///var/mobile/Containers/Data/Application/710296D6-.....DF/tmp/cdv_photo_002.jpg

which is according the debug 0x0 pixels wide

Extra info

I'm using cordova-plugin-ionic-webview v2.0.1 and using the following function to normalize the urls

 static wkWebViewFileURI(uri: string): string {
    if (uri && uri.indexOf('file://') > -1) {
        uri = uri.replace('file://', '');
    }

    return uri;
}

I tried again to use window.Ionic.WebView.convertFileSrc() and it solved my issue this time. Maybe I was facing the issue ionic-team/cordova-plugin-ionic-webview#133 which was solved in cordova-plugin-ionic-webview 2.0.3

Anyhow all good now
