Lens Recognition for Sigma 24mm f/1.4 DG HSM Art

[Macchiato17]

Is your feature request related to a problem?

exiv2 doesn't recognize the lens Sigma 24mm f/1.4 DG HSM Art when used with a crop sensor, i.e. Nikon D7500.
I was reproducing that issue with darktable (built from current master) and also by directly launching exiv2 from a MINGW64 shell under Windows 11.

In the meantime, the crop related calibration data was added to the lensfun database (see lensfun issue 2126), the issue related to darktable not recognizing this lens and the content of the exiv2.ini is decribed in lensfun issue 2127.

Describe the solution you would like

Would be wonderful, if you may add recognition of this lens to exiv2.

Describe alternatives you have considered

As a work-around I created an exiv2.ini linking the lens ID with the lens name string found in the lensfun database

Desktop

• Windows 11
• Exiv2 version 0.27.7 installed via pacman
• darktable built from current master

Additional context

I attached a JPEG file that was taken with this lens. Don't get confused, it's just a "black shot" 😉.
And I wish all of you developing, maintaining or otherwise contributing to this nice piece of software a Happy New Year 😃
