better document what the optional deps do

Browse source 
currently the README only mentions what deps are optional but has no
info on what they do. we had an issue where a user was confused about
what libexif is used for : https://github.com/nsxiv/nsxiv/issues/58

this makes it clear what each of the optional deps do so that users can
make more informed decision on weather they want something or not.
