Add support for OpenEXR

I think it might be useful to add support for OpenEXR in importing/exporting images.
According to their website they have:
Support for 16-bit floating-point, 32-bit floating-point, and 32-bit integer pixels.
If I understood it right, OGRE itself even has OpenEXR support by the EXRCodec plugin, which, however seems to lack some features:

Codec_STBI can also write HDR files (32bit float RGBA) and Codec_FreeImage can even directly write EXR files.
