photobooth: device cam preview broken after upgrade from 2.x version

Describe the bug After I upgraded to the latest version by git checkout origin/master the device preview (Raspberry Camera v2) does not longer work. Even a reset of the settings (also tried reset-raspbian.sh) does not fix the issue.

To Reproduce Steps to reproduce the behavior:

  1. Upgrade via https://github.com/andreknieriem/photobooth/wiki/Update-Photobooth
  2. Try to take a picture in Chromium with exception in unsafely-treat-insecure-origin-as-secure. (preview picture not displayed, only countdown, no asking for permission to access webcam by Chromium)

Expected behavior A preview from the device cam is displayed. Chromium asks for permission to access webcam.
