Consider extracting jpeg stuff in its own crate #821

Just like there is image-png, there should be image-jpeg.

We're depending on jpeg-decoder for jpeg. While not within the image-rs organization, it is a separate crate.

Hello! I would love to see a dedicated jpeg encoder crate, as there is currently none. For my work on dezoomify-rs, I would like to implement a lossless JPEG image joiner. I think all the required code to make this work already exists in rust, but it would require to have both the jpeg encoder and decoder expose more of their internals.
