Batch Queue Manager: Save modified images the way image editor does

[NeiNei]

Dear  Gilles,

thanks for the hint.

I did as you suggested in digiKam 4.14:

A. The situation in image editor (20161012_132602.JPG is original image):
~$ digikam
digikam(2674)/digikam (core) 
Digikam::ImageInfo::fromLocationAlbumAndName: No itemShortInfo could be 
retrieved from the database for image "20161012_132602_v1.JPG"
digikam(2674)/digikam (core) 
Digikam::ImageInfo::fromLocationAlbumAndName: No itemShortInfo could be 
retrieved from the database for image "20161012_132602_v1.JPG"

B. The sitaution in BQM (20161012_132602.JPG is original image):
~$ digikam
digikam(3625)/digikam (core): Cannot find an album for  KUrl("")
digikam(3625)/digikam (core): Cannot find an album for  KUrl("")
digikam(3625)/digikam (core): Cannot find an album for  KUrl("")
digikam(3625)/digikam (core) 
Digikam::ImageInfo::fromLocationAlbumAndName: No itemShortInfo could be 
retrieved from the database for image "20161012_132602_1.JPG"

I hope this helps a bit to analyze the situation.

Thanks,
NeiNei
