In lieu of dropping in next release. We needed this in order to write
some unit-tests for exifcommon functionality, and this is common
functionality anyway (by any definition of common thus far).
- common/ifd.go: Added NewIfdIdentityFromString. The above allowed us to
cover this with unit-tests.
- This was required for go-exif-knife, to get IFD-paths from the
command-line.
This allows us to pass around individual tokens that we can use to
generate IDs, names, and qualified and non-qualified IFD paths, rather
than [necessarily] having to pass or store them individually.
The previous global variables were strings. Now they are IfdIdentity structs
and have been renamed to be more accurate (in general, as well as for this).
The previous variables have been kept but are now just assigned to the newer
variables. This is backwards-compatibility that will be removed in the future.
