Retain the original file name when uploading content using camera uploads.

Automatic uploads keeps remaining files. Please allow to keep the original file name when uploading. This makes the files harder to manage as I cannot search for their original names anymore.

This should have been a function long time ago.
Maybe have an option in camera-upload settings to keep the original filename or choose a format to automatically rename files.
