Support for continuity camera

Starting with the 2305 version, you can use the iPhone as your webcam with the continuity camera. For a seamless connection, mount your iPhone such that its camera is available to the Mac device. You must select Webcam > Automatic Camera Selection for the iPhone to appear automatically on the Mac device as an external camera. You can switch to any other camera manually, for example by selecting Webcam > FaceTime HD Camera. The Continuity Camera works wired or wirelessly and provides a high-quality image.
