parse any integer so that if this case happen it will default to 0 so other info can still be inserted

symptom: file contains EXIF data (possibly invalid), no EXIF data at all is displayed within immich

fix should:

  • display exif data even if other fields are not valid
  • add better logs there to make it more obvious why it failed

Version of Immich Server

v1.45

Version of Immich Mobile App

Reproduction steps

  2. import into immich
  3. see that no exif data is shown
  4. open same file in irfanview, press e, see that exif data is shown
