Add simple camera test component for debugging

🔬 Camera Debug Test:
- Create minimal camera component to isolate UI issues
- Always shows video element (no conditional rendering)
- Detailed status and error reporting
- Shows video properties and ready state
- Tests basic camera stream assignment and playback

This will help determine if the issue is:
❓ Video element not rendering at all
❓ Stream not being assigned properly
❓ CSS/styling hiding the video
❓ Video element exists but shows black screen
