Bug Description

exiv2 interprets Exif.CanonCs.LensType just fine, but pyexiv2 0.1 does not.

While investigating this I noticed that the cpp side implementation of the interpretation can be simplified to use Exiv2::Exifdatum::print and it accepts ExifData pointer as argument. If that argument is given, that Exif.CanonCs.LensType is interpreted too.

Note that the value of the tag (of type Short) is correctly retrieved (161 for the example image).
What pyexiv2 doesn't provide is the corresponding lens type ("Canon EF 28-70mm f/2.8L")..
