feat(server): xmp sidecar metadata (#2466)

* initial commit for XMP sidecar support

* Added support for 'missing' metadata files to include those without sidecar files, now detects sidecar files in the filesystem for media already ingested but the sidecar was created afterwards

* didn't mean to commit default log level during testing

* new sidecar logic for video metadata as well

* Added xml mimetype for sidecars only

* don't need capture group for this regex

* wrong default value reverted

* simplified the move here - keep it in the same try catch since the outcome is to move the media back anyway

* simplified setter logic

Co-authored-by: Jason Rasmussen <jrasm91@gmail.com>

* simplified logic per suggestions

* sidecar is now its own queue with a discover and sync, updated UI for the new job queueing

* queue a sidecar job for every asset based on discovery or sync, though the logic is almost identical aside from linking the sidecar

* now queue sidecar jobs for each assset, though logic is mostly the same between discovery and sync

* simplified logic of filename extraction and asset instantiation

* not sure how that got deleted..

* updated code per suggestions and comments in the PR

* stat was not being used, removed the variable set

* better type checking, using in-scope variables for exif getter instead of passing in every time

* removed commented out test

* ran and resolved all lints, formats, checks, and tests

* resolved suggested change in PR

* made getExifProperty more dynamic with multiple possible args for fallbacks, fixed typo, used generic in function  for better type checking

* better error handling and moving files back to positions on move or save failure

* regenerated api

* format fixes

* Added XMP documentation

* documentation typo

* Merged in main

* missed merge conflict

* more changes due to a merge

* Resolving conflicts

* added icon for sidecar jobs

+# XMP Sidecars
+
+Immich can ingest XMP sidecars on file upload (via the CLI) as well as detect new sidecars that are placed in the filesystem for existing images.
+
+<img src={require('./img/xmp-sidecars.png').default} title='XMP sidecars' />
+
+XMP sidecars are external XML files that contain metadata related to media files. Many applications read and write these files either exclusively or in addition to the metadata written to image files. They can be a powerful tool for editing and storing metadata of a media file without modifying the mdia file itself. When Immich receives or detects an XMP sidecar for a media file, it will attempt to extract the metadata from both the sidecar as well as the media file. It will prioritize the metadata for fields in the sidecar but will fall back and use the metadata in the media file if necessary.
+
+When importing files via the CLI bulk uploader, Immich will automatically detect XMP sidecar files as files that exist next to the original media file and have the exact same name with an additional `.xmp` file extension (i.e., `PXL_20230401_203352928.MP.jpg` and `PXL_20230401_203352928.MP.jpg.xmp`).
+
+There are 2 administrator jobs associated with sidecar files: `SYNC` and `DISCOVER`. The sync job will re-scan all media with existing sidecar files and queue them for a metadata refresh. This is a great use case when third-party applications are used to modify the metadata of media. The discover job will attempt to scan the filesystem for new sidecar files for all media that does not currently have a sidecar file associated with it.
