Bug Description
lensfun is a database and library that allows applications to access and save lens correction settings: http://
lensfun was in part designed for Hugin as a replacement for the existing .ini lens saving system, it is mature and has been adopted by ufraw and rawstudio, it is about time that Hugin started using it.

I had a short look on lensfun. Some comments from me:
1.) Lensfun stores only a very rough lens types:
From the doc: <type>string</type> Lens type. This is one of: "rectilinear", "fisheye", "panoramic", "equirectangular".
But hugin has e.g. a finer grain for fisheye lenses (full frame fisheye, circular fisheye, thoby, orthographic?) So how do we handle this cases?
2.) For fisheye lenses the crop rectangle/circle is not stored in the database. But I think this is needed for hugin needs.
3.) Lensfuns does currently not support a native windows compile. It supports only cross compile, that means you need a linux system to generate the lib for the windows version. We need to find a solution for this.
