Gwenview shows duplicate information for instance for

* Bits per Sample
* Image width / height

whenever there's a thumbnail included. 

If I query the exif data via
> identify -verbose myimage.png
it says

   exif:thumbnail:BitsPerSample: 8, 8, 8
   exif:thumbnail:Compression: 6
   exif:thumbnail:ImageLength: 144
   exif:thumbnail:ImageWidth: 256

Therefore it would be convenient if gwenview appends the word "Thumbnail" in front of the related fields, too, in order to avoid confusion.

Thank you for the bug report. Unfortunately we were not able to get to it yet. Can we ask you to please check if this is still an issue with Gwenview 25.08.0?
