Describe the issue
Support spectral image layout proposed by
An OpenEXR Layout for Spectral Images
http://jcgt.org/published/0010/03/01/
Spectral images are getting popular, so built-in spectral layout support in TinyEXR is recommended.

Hello,
I am very pleased that the TinyEXR project might be interested by such an odd image format.
In fact, TinyEXR is used in MRF and generated one of the renderings provided as an exemplar image in the supplemental: https://gitlab.inria.fr/pacanows/MRF/-/blob/master/libmrf/mrf_core/image/exr_spectral_image.cpp . This same code is used in Spectral Viewer (https://gitlab.com/mrf-devteam/spectral-viewer) in case OpenEXR library is not available on the host system.
Probably not the best piece of code. Also, not really sure how this could be easily accessible neatly threw TinyEXR without too much bloat but, pinging in there just in case questions arise.
Cheers.
@afichet Awesome! We've also worked on fully-spectral monte carlo renderer(EXR and TIFF as a fileforma), and wanted (de-facto)standarized spectral format. Your proposed spectral layout looks promising.
Good! FYI, you can use tinydngloader https://github.com/syoyo/tinydngloader for 32bit FP TIFF reading/writing(writer module is here: https://github.com/syoyo/tinydngloader/tree/master/examples/dngwriter )
Thanks for the recommendation! This will definitely comes handy. Great to know this also supports DNG, was getting recently interested by such format for some side projects.
