[BUG?] Camera Upload renames files on Android

$

Camera upload renames files on Android.

The media from my phone has filenames that start with IMG_, VID_, or PANO_ by default. Upon upload, the files are renamed "yyyy-MM-dd HH.mm.ss.extension"

It doesn't seem necessary, isn't in any changelogs, isn't a date format I've ever considered using, and doesn't happen on iOS. I also don't remember it doing it when Camera Upload only supported images, but I didn't use it much at the time because of the lack of video support.

I've tested it with:

Device OS Plex Version Renames?
iPad iOS 9.3.5 4.2.1 no
LG G2 Android 5.0.2 4.32.1.498 yes
Nexus 6P Android 7.0 4.32.1.498 yes

Any thoughts? If renaming files is some sort of back-end necessity, can we specify a format?
