Running 'lensfun-update' should bring in the most recent cameras .... on Linux anyway

The situation: I would like to automatically apply lens correction to my
pictures taken with a certain zoom lens (Sony, FE 24-105mm F4 G OSS). The
lens is being automatically recognized by darktable and set when activating
the module. The camera is *not* automatically detected, as it's a quite new
model (Sony, Alpha 7 III) and not yet in the database. It doesn't matter to
me, I can select its predecessor (Sony, Alpha 7 II), which works equally
fine.
It may not matter to you, but it does break the auto-selection on the darktable 
module. Fortunately, the camera is in the latest update available with 
lensfun-update-data... if for some reason you can't use that utility, the 
attached xml file contains only that profile, and should go wherever lensfun 
profiles live on your system (~/.local/share/lensfun on linux, and I believe 
darktable/lensfun on Windows).

As you've found, the presets on that module don't play nicely with 
auto-selection... if that module ever gets some love from developers, that 
might be something that could be improved. :)
