[camera_avfoundation] dealloc camera on dispose (#7211)

When is camera disposed in `disposeCamera` it calls `close` and leaves `_camera` untouched so after another call to `sessionQueueCreateCameraWithName` it calls `close` second time and only here is `_camera` disposed by assigning new value into that variable. Calling `close` 2x may be unexpected and prone to later errors if someone adds here something which expects that it will be called only once. Also having dangling `_camera` after dispose (without creating new one) can have other unintended consequences although maybe benign for now. For example there is `[_motionManager stopAccelerometerUpdates]` which is called only in `dealloc`.
