Public bug reported:

Use the function _pyexiv2.is_readable to know if exif & iptc data should
be read.

For example with png files this triggers warnings.
XMP Toolkit error 203: Top level typedNode not allowed
Warning: Failed to decode XMP metadata.

Also maybe reduce the amount Exif readers for performance. (EXIF.py ?)

Better would be a lazy system or analyzing if metadata is needed anyway
in the action list and which one.
