Description
### Problem
The support for metadata has been greatly improved in https://github.com/OpenImageIO/oiio/issues/1739.
Unfortunately Exif contains many custom cases and it would be great to support more MakerNotes as they contain a large part of the image information.
Here is an example of Sony image:
In our use case (photogrammetry), we need to retrieve the BodySerialNumber and the LensSerialNumber which are unfortunately in the MakerNotes.

Research direction
Start by reviewing the metadata support described in issue #1739 and the Sony image example in this issue, then locate the project's Exif/MakerNotes entry point. Done means Sony MakerNotes expose the BodySerialNumber and LensSerialNumber needed by the reported photogrammetry use case.
