EXR, HDR, JXR and PFM formats support High Dynamic Range images (FP values grater than 1).
In summary, here is the list of changes:
EXR, HDR, JXR and PFM: When working with FP formats, the clamp between 0 and 1 is no longer done.
EXR: Removed old SDR code and conversions. Due to the lack of a QImage Gray FP format, Gray images are output as RGB FP (recently added code for Qt 6.8 has been removed).
PFM: Due to the lack of a QImage Gray FP format, Gray images are output as RGB FP.
HDR: Added rotation and exposure support.
With this patch, EXR, JXR, HDR, PFM behave like Qt's TIFF plugin when working with FP images.
While working on MR !230 I noticed that the options read I entered into several plugins could not be read after reading the image.
**The patch fixes problems reading options in plugins and adds option checking in the readtest.cpp.**
In particular, the reading test does the following additional actions:
- reads options before reading the image;
- compare the options read with the options returned by the reader after reading the image;
- compares the format and size of the returned image with the format and size returned by the reader.
According to relicensecheck Brad is OK with changing LGPLv2 to LGPLv2+,
which is required to be compatible with the LGPL-2.1-or-later licensed
source files.

Frameworks have a convention of naming uninstalled headers in src/ with
a _p at the end of the name, to make it clear they are not part of the
API. None of the headers in KImageFormats are installed, so it is not
really necessary to follow this convention, but we follow it anyway for
the benefit of both humans and tools (like kapidox).
