libraw supported raw files extension not loadable throught the file loading dialog

[giovariot]

I've noticed that in src/LoadOptionsDialog.cpp there are only the following extensions supported by the load dialog:

void LoadOptionsDialog::addFiles() {
    QSettings settings;
    QVariant lastDirSetting = settings.value("lastOpenDirectory");
    QString filter(tr("Raw images ("
    "*.3fr "
    "*.ari *.arw "
    "*.bay "
    "*.crw *.cr2 *.cap "
    "*.dcs *.dcr *.dng *.drf "
    "*.eip *.erf "
    "*.fff "
    "*.iiq "
    "*.k25 *.kdc "
    "*.mdc *.mef *.mos *.mrw "
    "*.nef *.nrw "
    "*.obm *.orf "
    "*.pef *.ptx *.pxn "
    "*.r3d *.raf *.raw *.rwl *.rw2 *.rwz "
    "*.sr2 *.srf *.srw "
    "*.x3f"
    ")"));

A few more file extensions are compatible with the libraw backend, and adding support for those is apparently really easy. I've tried adding the .qtk extension to this list in LoadOptionsDialog.cpp and recompiled hdrmerge and with the recompiled version I successfully opened a file and even saved a dng from it.

Apparently a more complete list of libraw supported extensions can be found on the android sources repository
