Add Exposure Compensation to Info

Exposure compensation (the change from base exposure) may not be the first data point many photographers look for, yet to me and many like me, it is more helpful to know than, e.g., shutter speed. I’m past the stage of remembering every little detail of exposure, so when I analyse my work. I want to know how I compensated from base exposure and by how much (e.g. EV +⅔ or EV –1⅓ ). It is particularly helpful to know when using images for teaching photography.

I realize I could use Lightroom Classic to find this info, but more and more of my work is being done using Cloud-based Lightroom.
