Issue report

I can query the google streetview API the business names from a google place ID however, I can't query using a place ID directly on the streetview metadata api.

Example:

https://maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/place/details/json?place_id=ChIJ0bJjv2Kdk2sRUp1UwGPxLFg&key=XXXXXXXX

Returns a JSON object with the place_id as well as the business name I can then search against the place metadata API

https://maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/streetview/metadata?size=600x300&location=UBX%20Buderim,%20Queensland,%20Australia&key=xxxxxx

I can then take the pano_id and use that to get the image of the location:

https://maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/streetview?size=600x300&pano=dm0w3WQSIPRSPtcXYaKJzg&key=xxxx

The problem is sometimes the camera does not always pan to the correct location of the business.

Can we please allow the google streetview/metadata api to accept the location=<PLACE-ID> rather than just the business name and/or is there another preferred method to get/pan the camera based on the place ID of a business?

I can't find any specific answers to this in the google maps documentation hence the bug submission, as I'm assuming this should work in the metadata request.
