We should not repackage anything still actively maintained upstream and is not a direct dependency for Trinity.

Serghei said he would add a detection test to the cmake files.

One note: if packagers build with libjpeg-turbo installed but downstream users do not have libjpeg-turbo installed, everything should still work. That is, using libjpeg-turbo should be optional in the code but still use the expected default libjpeg libraries when libjpeg-turbo is not installed.
