Add an option to not embed ComicInfo.xml file in cbz format #104

Closed qx6ghqkz closed 2 months ago

The idea

Add an option such as --no-comicinfo to disable embedding a ComicInfo.xml file into the cbz format and any other supported formats, or disable this functionality by default and make it optional with an option such as --write-comicinfo.

Why this feature should be added to the app ?

A ComicInfo.xml file is not always wanted as it may contain metadata that causes manga to be displayed differently than a user wants in supported comic readers (e.g. Komga). It would be nice to have an option to disable the generation of this file instead of having to manually delete or modify the file for each download.
