CameraUpdateFactory.newLatLngBounds() not returning greatest possible zoom

/**

public static CameraUpdate newLatLngBounds(@NonNull LatLngBounds bounds, int padding)

The "... at the greatest possible zoom level" guarantee does not always hold true. The resulting zoom (and center) will vary depending on the initial bearing of the map when the CameraUpdate is applied.

When the map starts out at 0-degree bearing, the "greatest possible zoom level" will hold true. If the map starts out at any non-zero bearing, however, we will likely get a suboptimal zoom level with newLatLngBounds().

This is actually a bug we are tracking in both mapbox/mapbox-gl-native#2259 and mapbox/mapbox-gl-native#4796. Closing ticket in favor of those issues.
