exif() returns every EXIF tag in the file (closes #156)
check / check (push) Failing after 59s

`photo.exif()` now returns every EXIF tag in the file, as the owner ruled, typed `ExifTags`: each tag keyed by name with `exifreader`'s `id`, `value`, `description` and `computed`. A tag with no name is keyed `undefined-` plus its number, and the embedded thumbnail's tags sit under `Thumbnail`. The thirteen typed methods stay, with the same names and types; each now picks its field from `exif()`'s tags. GPS latitude and longitude are worked out from the GPS tags and their reference tags, and a position with no reference tags gives neither. `backup-metadata --exif` output is unchanged.
