Bug Report

@capacitor/camera plugin is not accepting multiple images at a time from photo album.IT is accepting multiple images from gallery but it is allowing the only one image at a time from photo album.Im using pickimages() only.

Im using ionic 6 and capacitor 5 in android 13 version.
Im using code like this
async pickImages() {
try {
const cameraPermissionStatus = await Camera.checkPermissions();
let images;

  switch (cameraPermissionStatus.camera) {
    case 'granted':
      this.logAnalytics.logEvent('Permissions granted to pick images from the gallery');
      images = await Camera.pickImages({});
      break;

    case 'prompt':
    case 'prompt-with-rationale':
      const permissionResult = await Camera.requestPermissions();
      if (permissionResult.camera === 'granted') {
        this.logAnalytics.logEvent(`Permissions granted to pick images from the gallery after prompt (${cameraPermissionStatus.camera})`);
        images = await Camera.pickImages({})
      } else {
        this.logAnalytics.logEvent(`Permissions denied to pick images from the gallery after prompt (${cameraPermissionStatus.camera})`);
      }
      break;

    case 'limited':
      this.logAnalytics.logEvent('Permissions limited to images from the gallery');
      break;

    case 'denied':
      this.logAnalytics.logEvent('Permissions denied to pick images from the gallery');
      break;

    default:
      this.logAnalytics.logEvent('Unknown camera permission status');
      break;
  }

  if (images) {
    this.pickedImages = images.photos;
    let totalImagesCount;
    if(this.images?.length>0){
      totalImagesCount= this.images?.length + this.pickedImages.length;
    }
    else{
      totalImagesCount=this.pickedImages?.length
    }

    if(totalImagesCount>5){
      this.displayAlertPopup=true;
      this.alertpopupMessage={
        textMsg:'You can not select more than 5 images',
        dialogType:'Alert'
      }
      return;
    }
  }
  try{
  this.pickedImages.forEach(async (image)=>{
    const fileData = await Filesystem.readFile({
      path:image.path
    })
    let base64data='data:image/jpeg;base64,'+fileData?.data
    let obj={

      filePath:
        new Date().getTime() +
        '.' +
        'jpeg',
      fileType: 'image',
      File: base64data
    }
    if(this.images==null){
      this.images=[]
    }
    this.images.push(obj)
    // prints base 64 string of the selected file
    this.uploadFilestoBlob = this.images
    if (this.images) {
      this.files = this.images;
      if (this.images.length == 1) {
        this.isShownSingleImg = true;
      }
      else {
        this.isShownSingleImg = false;

      }
      this.files = this.files.map(({ File, ...rest }) => rest);
    }
  //  localStorage.setItem('CapturedImages', JSON.stringify(this.images));
   await this.indexeddbService.addUpdateCachedAsset(JSON.stringify(this.images),`CapturedImages`)


    
  })

  
}
catch(error){
  this.logAnalytics.logException(error)
}

} catch (error) {
  console.error('Error in pickImages:', error);
  // Handle the error appropriately (e.g., log, show a message, etc.)
}

}
