Description
When howdy is recognizing a face while entering a sudo command, if someone press ctrl+z, the process will be sent to the background, while the camera IR emitter keeps working and it does not stop. I think it should release resources (camera) when it is sent to the background.
Linux distribution (if applicable): Ubuntu 20.10
Howdy version (`sudo howdy version`): 2.6.1

Research direction
No file or test is named in the issue. Start by reproducing the behavior on Ubuntu 20.10 with Howdy 2.6.1 while authenticating a sudo command, then trace how the recognition process handles Ctrl+Z. Done means the camera and IR emitter are released when recognition is suspended or sent to the background.
