Some microscopy file types, such as
.svs
(https://openslide.org/formats/aperio/) are essentially .tif files, with custom tags. I wanted to read in the metadata (width, height etc.), but this failed due to the file using a custom compression scheme (JPEG2000) that is not supported in theimage-tiff
library/.tif specification.This PR simply adds in the ability to read in custom compression schemes and therefore also the metadata, without an error occuring.
