write calculated hashes back to metadata fields in each file

It can be nice to write back the calculated hashes to each file for other programs convenience. (needs the agreement of the user, with a checkbox or similar)

Its only about writing metadata (the file already should have)...

This enables other programs on a system to search for the specific file on the hard drive without the need to calculate the hash for every file while searching...

This enables new functionality in a number of programs using bitprints as search function...

Elimination of the slow hashprocess (for initial file identification) should be the most important issue in this project!!

Verification of files will still need the slow hashprocess.
