In fact only libjpeg seems to work for many images: there are images with a
RGB colour-space (marked with some Adobe APP14 tag) which have no YUV step
involved, and neither our in-tree code nor this external jpeg-compressor
code handle that as far as I can see (and in fact LordHoto had to change
his libjpeg pull request in order to disable YUV output by default, since
that's impossible when the image isn't YUV).
