Bug Description

Tested on mako vivid-proposed #123

There is no flash status set in the exif metadata for an image taken on mako to indicate whether the flash was used to take the photo or not.

With krillin the flash status does get saved, using the "Flash" property in the exif metadata.

I used exiftool to extract the exif metadata from the image.
