Edit: No longer implementing this, see below

- `start/stopCamera()` -

Using time, we can start and stop effects of current p5.camera methods like `tilt()`, `setPosition()` `move()`, `pan()`, `lookAt()`. See these cases -

1. `startCamera( t ) / startInterval( t )` - starts the effects after t seconds. If none of the above methods are called before, the default `camera()` is used. After `t` seconds, the previous methods are stopped and subsequent methods are called.

2. `stopCamera( t ) / stopInterval( t )` - ends the effects after t seconds. If none of the above methods are called after, the default `camera()` is used. After `t` seconds, the previous methods are stopped and subsequent methods are called.

At the moment, I cannot decide a name for this function, as `start/stopCamera()` is a kind of misnomer, and a little misdirecting, but as is `start/stopInterval()`. I will update as I come up with new ideas.
