Add FreeCameraOptions to v10

[dpyeates]

New Feature

Add options for accessing 'getFreeCameraOptions' of the Mapbox API which allows access to the properties of the underlying camera entity. Direct access to these properties allows more flexible and precise controlling of the camera.

Why

The FreeCamera allows precise positioning of the camera at a point location, pitch angle and bearing
This enables you to use the camera to 'fly' around the map.

Has there been any consideration to add this feature please? I have a use case that would be fantastic to be able to implement if I could 'fly' the camera around the map.

Any discussion at all on this? I really can't believe such a killer feature that is available hasn't yet been integrated into the React Native API?
