I observed a bug with darktable 2.6.2 on Arch Linux when updated sidecar
files are found on startup and are reloaded: The updates are not
completely picked up by reloading.

To reproduce: set up two user spaces with options "look for updated
sidecar files on startup" and "write sidecar file for each image" enabled.
- User A:
  - Open darktable.
  - Setup a collection of one image.
  - Mark it with a color label.
  - Close darktable.
- User B:
  - Open darktable.
  - Import the same collection with this one image possibly reloading
the sidecar files.
  - Close darktable.
- User A:
  - Open darktable.
  - Delete the color label from the image.
  - Close darktable.
- User B:
  - Open darktable.
  - Reload the sidecar file on startup.
Now the database of User B is out of sync with the sidecar file. The
image will have the color label still set in the database user B.

Sometimes I observed that the side car files for a group of a raw and a
jpg image get out of sync and only the sidecar file for the raw image
does not pick up all the changes by the other user. I don't have a way
to reproduce this behavior.
