Restoring a photo does not restore tags

[Maik Qualmann]

Another factor is the options to update the file time stamp and rescan the 
image if it changes. The restored file will also be scanned again, if you have 
not written the tags to the metadata, but have activated the option to write 
tags, a "clean" scan will be performed, which of course deletes the tags in 
the DB.
