[TYPO3-dam] write meta data into files

[Dan Osipov]

"exiftool" is an external program, as stated by the description.
In TER, look for cc_metaexif for that extension.

Using a hook makes sense. See if DAM already has a hook for saving file 
information.

If you code this feature, it will be included in 1.2
