Exporting obj with normalmap creates a opacity map in the mtl file instead

- Steps for others to reproduce the error (preferably based on attached .blend file) ---

Import the obj file called demon. Export it as Obj. Open the mtl file of both files. The first file will have this for the demonmeshmat:

map_Kd demon_tex.png
map_Bump demon_NM.png

The by blender exported material looks a bit different though. No more bump anymore. But an entry for an opacity map. That`s the map_d entry. And the normalmap is now defined as map_Disp. Which is not part of the official obj file specification from what i know. What is map_Disp good for? Displacement?

map_Kd demon_tex.png
map_Disp demon_NM.png
map_d demon_tex.png

Attached the whole dataset. The zifpile contains the original obj file, the written obj file, and the blender scene.
