This patch addresses the following GitHub user issues:
Previously, instantiating Image with an image file without a valid APP1 segment caused an
infinite loop if the APP1 segment marker was found in the hexadecimal of the image itself. Now,
the package raises an IOError indicating that the file isn't properly EXIF-encoded. (See
https://github.com/TNThieding/exif/issues/14 for more information.)
Previously, accessing an image's user_comment attribute raised an exception stating the
datatype was unknown. Now, the package parses the user_comment attribute's special data
structure as described in the EXIF specification so that users can access its value. (See
https://github.com/TNThieding/exif/issues/15 for more information.)
