Andreas Huggel 55aebc0686 Overhauled exception handling. The new class Error has a list of error messages, which is selected based on the error code provided in the constructor.
Image::read/writeMetadata and ImageFactory::open now throw Error in case of failure. Applications therefore now need an exception handler for the error handling of such function calls. This should result in shorter and simpler application code.

// Delete metadata from the Exif data container
// Delete the metadatum at iterator position pos
