Title:
  XMP IPTC Creator metadata written to wrong property

Status in “digikam” package in Ubuntu:
  New
Status in “exiv2” package in Ubuntu:
  New
Status in “kipi-plugins” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  1) In digikam, select an image and go to Image > Metadata > Edit all
  metdata > Edit XMP > Credits:Contact.

  2) Fill in the fields, such as City. Apply, close the metadata editor, go to 
Image > Write metadata to image.
          Digikam uses exiv2 to write the metadata properties. 

  3) Check which XMP properties where written using the exiv2 command
  line tool.

  $ exiv2 -px image.jpg | grep City
  Xmp.iptc.CiAdrCity                           XmpText    13  Vancouver

  4) Write equivalent property using exiftool: exiftool
  -ContactCity=Vancouver image.jpg

  5) Confirm which property was written using exiv2 command line.

  $ exiv2 -px image.jpg | grep City
  Xmp.iptc.CiAdrCity                                                            
          XmpText    13  Vancouver
  Xmp.iptc.CreatorContactInfo/Iptc4xmpCore:CiAdrCity      XmpText      9  
Vancouver

  Digikam has written the wrong property. According to the XMP schema,
  Creator Contact properties are nested under Creator Contact Info, not
  at the root level themselves. Exiftool has written the correct form of
  this property. Digikam/exiv2 have not.
