[TYPO3-dam] EXIF/XMP tags to DAM meta data

do not use 1.0.100 - it has to much bugs.

nope, but i needed such thing for my own.

i wrote an extension "exiftool".

It includes the "exiftool"-perl script which is able to read and write
metadata for a lot of filetypes.

It is experimental at now, because it only "works for me" but is not
tested well. Nobody else had a look at the code - and i think i should
devide the three parts of the extension:

1) exiftool itself
2) reading metadata
3) writing metadata

It gives you the possibility to define on PAGE-TS-Config which field of
tx_dam should be filled with which output of the exiftool.

It is also possible to write meta-data back to files.

so, bug-reports are welcome:)
