Unable to scan pixel phone WiFi sharing QR codes #45

In my opinion, the Pixel phone's WiFi sharing QR codes are needlessly hard to scan. But other QR code implementations do scan them, and I also want WiFi sharing to work universally, so I'd like it if rqrr was able to read these.

Example image (from a screenshot of my phone):

rqrr can't seem to locate the QR code in that image. Interestingly, the bardecoder crate does locate it, although it's not as good at decoding the QR codes; it doesn't handle UTF8 and also its error detection doesn't seem as good.

I am actually able to decode these by using bardecoder to read the grid, and then using rqrr to decode it, but that seems a bit silly.
