I see this now - I don't have poppler nor podofo right now in this
machine. The information (read and/or write - in my case only write)
is in the meta data of the driver but it is not exposed well by gdalinfo.
Except that it is not there. gdal.h does not define GDAL_DCAP_READ,
which should probably be put into the driver meta data as YES almost
always except for the GDAL PDF driver without a reader.
I believe without this other software like gdalinfo have no way of
knowing whether reading of a dataset is supported.
