I see you've been hard at work!

I finally managed to build all the pieces of software needed for the GSoC
branch. I've just done some very brief tests, but will return and report
further. A few observations so far:

1. I like the way you've added more configuration options for how to write
metadata, so that both image and sidecar can have the information.

2. Adding tags to an image makes it write metadata to sidecar when configured
to do so, and otherwise not. Correct behaviour.

3. Selecting "Image > Write metadata to image" for some reason does NOT write
to XMP sidecar. Incorrect behaviour.

4. I tried adding geolocation data, but I'm getting segmentation faults.
Perhaps I didn't build libkmap correctly?

5. Selecting "Image > Read metadata from image again" (or something like that)
does NOT update image keywords. Incorrect behaviour.

I will do some further tests, perhaps also with gdb to see what's going on,
when I get time (unless you find the problems first).
