I am not sure if `generateConfiguration()` should modify the state of the
camera. It does not seem to be compatible with e.g an application caching
multiple desired configurations. But crucially, the `generateConfiguration()`
method, in contrast to most other similar methods, runs in the caller's thread,
and does not run in the camera manager's private thread. (I am not sure if this
is just an oversight or intentional.)

So these two flags should probably be stored in `SimpleCameraConfiguration`,
and copied into `SimpleCameraData` after a successful `configure()`. Similarly
to `useConversion_`, as far as I can tell.
