v0.7.0

This release adds opt-in XMP sidecar metadata for archival exports.

Highlights

• Add --sidecar none|xmp with default none.
• Write XMP sidecars next to exported files when --sidecar xmp is selected.
• XMP files use the exported file basename, for example IMG_0001.jpg -> IMG_0001.xmp.
• Sidecars include photoscli metadata such as asset ID, filenames, album, manifest path, media type, dimensions, favorite state, cloud state, export mode, version, exported timestamp, size, and creation date when available.
• XMP writes are atomic and fail the asset when explicitly requested sidecar output cannot be written.
• Config files can set sidecar = "xmp".
