I can see not adding the support to the ENCODING portion, also because that
appears to imply an ABI change (extra flag), but the DECODING portion of the
patch should be merged.
The patch against the original libjpeg libjpeg-turbo is derived from should
probably work, it might not be "turbo"-optimized, but given how rare those
files are, that shouldn't be a problem. It's still better to be able to
decode the files slowly than not at all.
