avoid using deprecated camera device type constants on recent macos versions
What changed, and why it matters
This commit updates a single camera-library dependency version in the project's build file. The stated reason is to stop using deprecated macOS camera device type constants, which could otherwise cause camera-related features to break on newer Macs. There is no direct evidence in the commit of a security vulnerability being fixed.
Treat as a routine maintenance update. If evaluating security risk, check the upstream openpnp-capture-java release notes between 0.0.28-6 and 0.0.28-9 for any security fixes, but this commit itself does not demonstrate one.
