Description

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
Most apps that display a barcode, QR code, etc. will automatically set the screen brightness to the maximum setting to improve readability, then return it to its original value once finished. I would like the Card Wallet app to do the same.

Describe the solution you'd like
Have Card Wallet set the screen brightness to 100% when a card's barcode/QR code is being displayed.

Describe alternatives you've considered
Manually changing screen brightness is what I've done, but it is somewhat annoying to do.

Research direction

Start by locating the Card Wallet screen that displays a card barcode or QR code and reviewing how the Android app currently handles screen brightness. Implement the brightness change for the display period and restoration of the original setting afterward; done means the code is readable at full brightness and the prior brightness returns when the display ends.
