vcf export doesn't contain photos #1054

Open

Description

@Kaligule

Thank you for the amazing app.

The app workds fine pretty much all the time.
But when I export my contacts to vcf, the photos are missing.
The contacts are in there, all fields (as far as I can see) are there, just the contact-photos are missing.

What I expected

in the vcf-file the contacts have a field called PHOTO as specified in RFC6350.
The photo is encoded in base64 or something like this.

What I got

The PHOTO key is missing.
Here is an example (Name, Catergory and phone number changed, but everything else left as it was.
The contact has a photo in the app.

    I can report the same, no photo exported.

    On the other hand, I couldn't find a way to import photos from vcf.

    I tried:
    PHOTO;ENCODING=BASE64;TYPE=JPEG:<base64 encoded string>
    PHOTO;TYPE=JPEG;ENCODING=b:<base64 encoded string>
    PHOTO;MEDIATYPE=image/jpeg:<url>
    PHOTO;TYPE=JPEG;VALUE=URI:<url>

    (app version is the same, xiaomi mi 9t, android 10)
