Rename tag 0x8827 from Exif.Image.ISOSpeedRatings to Exif.Image.PhotographicSensitivity? #3451

Description

@norbertwg

The Metadata reference tables refers to Exif 2.3, I noticed that tag 0x8827 in Exif specification version 2.3 is called "PhotographicSensitivity", whereas in exiv2 it is called "ISOSpeedRatings", which is an old wording - as explained in the specification: "Note that this tag was referred to as “ISOSpeedRatings” in versions of this standard up to Version 2.21".

The question is now if wording should be changed in exiv2.
Pro: rename will follow naming in referenced specification
Con: users may be irritated when the do not find ISOSpeedRatings in output of exiv2
