https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=280825 Summary: Option to write metadata to original file/sidecar

It'd be far more flexible to be able to configure individually for each file
type where Digikam should write metadata to, rather than having to tediously
mess around with read-only file attribute.
For example, something like this in the settings dialog:
Digikam should store metadata to...
jpg [*] file [ ] sidecar [*] sidecar if read-only
cr2 [ ] [*] [ ]
nef [ ] [*] [ ]
gif [*] [*] [ ]
tif [*] [*] [ ]
Additionally it might be useful to be able to configure where sidecar files for
each file type are stored:
jpg [ ] in same folder as image [*] in subfolder of image folder
cr2 [*] [ ]
nef [*] [ ]
etc
perhaps with an additional option to configure the name of the subfolder in
which the sidecar files are stored when that option is selected.
Since a lot of users use different file formats at different stages of their
workflow, and have different needs for each of those formats, a
one-size-fits-all-formats approach quickly becomes counter-productive and so I
hope you will consider my request to make Digikam a bit more configurable for
the needs of an individual's workflow.
Reproducible: Didn't try
