Fix a bug where where PNG images could be incorrectly detected as
exif-rotated. This would happen when a PNG contained the
IFD0:Orientation flag. It's technically possible for a PNG to contain
this flag, but it's ignored by libvips and by browsers.

post #3762340 (nsfw) is an example of a PNG like this.

The fix is to use `autorot` to let libvips apply the rotation instead of
trying to interpret the exif data ourselves. Note that libvips-8.9 has a
bug where it doesn't strip the orientation flag after applying
`autorot`, which leads to the image being incorrectly rotated a second
time when generating the thumbnail. Use libvips-8.11 instead.
