After the client finishes uploading the photo with the returned UploadRef, photo.create publishes the uploaded Photo to Street View on Google Maps.
Currently, the only way to set heading, pitch, and roll in photo.create is through the Photo Sphere XMP metadata in the photo bytes. photo.create ignores the pose.heading, pose.pitch, pose.roll, pose.altitude, and pose.level fields in Pose.
