Victor Kuznetsov d5845a72f3 feat(metadata): blank AI-generator tokens in AVIF/HEIF Exif meta-box items
Closes a documented coverage gap (P2#9): an AI Software/Make/Artist/ImageDescription
token in an EXIF item (its TIFF bytes live in mdat/idat) survived remove_ai_metadata
because the top-level box stripper and (absent pillow-heif) the PIL EXIF reader can't
reach it. New isobmff.blank_ai_exif_tokens finds EXIF TIFF blocks by their II/MM
byte-order header, validates each with piexif (a coincidental II/MM run in pixels
won't parse as a TIFF IFD, so it's ignored), and overwrites any AI_GENERATOR_TOKENS-
bearing value with same-length spaces -- so box sizes and iloc offsets stay valid and
the coded image is untouched (mirrors blank_ai_xmp_packets; no iinf/iloc surgery, no
exiftool dep). Camera/editor EXIF without an AI token is preserved. Wired into
remove_ai_metadata's ISOBMFF path. Covers the realistic AI-generator-token case; xAI-
signature-in-meta-box-EXIF (Grok is JPEG-only) stays out.
