plug-ins: fix #7195 Exporting multilayer TIFF with EXIF saves some layers twice
If you first open a multi page TIFF, exiv2 generates EXIF tags for the
first 3 pages in the form of Exif.Image.<tags>, Exif.Image2.<tags>,
Exif.Image3.<tags>. When exporting with EXIF saving enabled, exiv2 thinks
it needs to save TIFF pages for the EXIF metadata of the second and third
page too. Those pages saved by exiv2 contain only metadata no real image
data and give warnings when loading.
The EXIF tags read from page 2 and 3 are only the basic image specs. We
don't use those, nor do we add tags to it. Until we support handling of
metadata for those pages and exiv2 has better support for all TIFF pages
beyond the first few, I see no reason to save this information.
So for now lets just delete all tags that start with Exif.Image followed
by a number.
