Describe the enhancement you'd like
I have some pictures that have (wrong) face areas defined from a previous version of digikam - would it be possible to scrub the EXIF info from all face info when using "delete face"? It seems right now only librephoto tags are scrubbed
After using the "delete face" I still have region and name information in the file

Describe why this will benefit the LibrePhotos
Deleting face regions that are wrong would improve the data quality and training date for face recognition

Additional context
It seems Librephotos is using the "Region Rectangle" to define the face area.
Digikam tags look like this (real example)

Region Applied To Dimensions H : 2304
Region Applied To Dimensions Unit: pixel
Region Applied To Dimensions W : 3456
Region Name : Personname
Region Type : Face, Face
Region Area X : 0.330874, 0.161892
Region Area Y : 0.771701, 0.498047
Region Area W : 0.175637, 0.128762
Region Area H : 0.315972, 0.193142
Region Area Unit : normalized, normalized
Tags List : People/Personname

Adding an option in settings to scrub this when deleting faces would make sense. This should only be applied to face regions, which is the defined in the "Region Type" tag
