Description
### Please check the following before submitting a new issue.
- [X] I have searched the [existing issues](https://github.com/baseflow/flutter-permission-handler/issues).
- [X] I have carefully [read the documentation](https://github.com/Baseflow/flutter-permission-handler/blob/main/permission_handler/README.md) and verified I have added the required platform specific configuration.
### Please select affected platform(s)
- [ ] Android
- [X] iOS
- [ ] Windows
### Steps to reproduce
1. Add permissions library to a Flutter app running on an iOS 17+ device
2. Add `"PERMISSION_PHOTOS=1",` line to the Podfile
3. Request photos only permission with `await Permission.photosAddOnly.request()`
4. Grant the permission
5. Request photos permission with `await Permission.photos.request()`. Select "Keep Add Only" in the dropdown.
6. Request the permission again `await Permission.photos.request()`. This time it returns permanently denied.
6. Open settings for the app and check the dropdown under `Photos`.
Only the "Add Photos Only" option is listed.
### Expected results
User is able to grant all photos permission in the app settings.
### Actual results
User is not able to grant all photos permission in the app settings.
### Code sample
Code
```
await Permission.photosAddOnly.request(); // allow
await Permission.photos.request(); // select add only
await Permission.photos.request(); // returns permanently denied
```
