Extend image I/O API with metadata support #27499
Covered with the PR:
* AVIF encoder can write exif, xmp, icc
* AVIF decoder can read exif
* JPEG encoder can write exif
* JPEG decoder can read exif
* PNG encoder can write exif
* PNG decoder can read exif
This PR is a sort of preamble for #27488. I suggest to merge this one first to OpenCV 4.x, then promote this change to OpenCV 5.x and then provide extra API to read and write metadata in 5.x (or maybe 4.x) in a style similar to #27488. Maybe in that PR exif packing/unpacking should be done using a separate external API. That is, metadata reading and writing can/should be done in 2 steps:
* [1] pack and then [2] embed exif into image at the encoding stage.
* [1] extract and then [2] unpack exif at the decoding stage.

imgcodecs: Add rgb flag for imread and imdecode #25809
Try to `imread` images by RGB to save R-B swapping costs.
## How to use it?
```
img_rgb = cv2.imread("PATH", IMREAD_COLOR_RGB) # OpenCV decode the image by RGB format.
```
## TODO
- [x] Fix the broken code
- [x] Add imread rgb test
- [x] Speed test of rgb mode.
## Performance test
| file name | IMREAD_COLOR | IMREAD_COLOR_RGB |
| --------- | ------ | --------- |
| jpg01 | 284 ms | 277 ms |
| jpg02 | 376 ms | 366 ms |
| png01 | 62 ms | 60 ms |
| Png02 | 97 ms | 94 ms |

{
