Images stored in iCloud

On iOS images can be stored in iCould if the device is low on space which means full-resolution photos automatically replaced with optimized version and full resolution versions are stored in iCloud.

In this case, we need to download the image from iCloud and Photos Framework by Apple does a great job. Downloading take time and we deal with UI, so we need to show loading/progress indicator. In order to do so, we provide 3 types of loading/progress inidcators:

Sets remoteDownloadIndicatorType prop (and remoteDownloadIndicatorColor in order to sets the Color) on CameraKitGalleryView:

Attribute	Values
'spinner'
'progress-bar'
'progress-pie'

In order to simulate this loading behaviour, since reach low on storage situation is hard, add this prop iCloudDownloadSimulateTime={TIME_IN_SECONDS}, just DO NOT FORGET TO REMOVE IT.
