Serve and accept JPEG XL as an image format (part of #222)
check / check (push) Waiting to run

A JPEG XL source is accepted, and orig of one is JPEG XL. The format
jxl works in plain and encrypted URLs and on the generator page,
served as image/jxl; auto chooses it first when Accept names
image/jxl.

govips sends libvips a JPEG XL distance, which overrides the quality,
so q is turned into a distance, keeping 100 lossy. govips cannot have
libvips strip metadata from JPEG XL, so it is removed from the image
before saving; libvips 8.16 and later still add an EXIF block of their
own, with nothing from the source. The conversion to sRGB moved ahead
of the format switch, and a CMYK image with no ICC profile is
converted to sRGB too, as libvips cannot save CMYK as JPEG XL.

# Completed Steps
- 2026-10-08 JPEG XL as an input and output format (part of #222): a source
whose bytes start with either JPEG XL signature, the bare codestream's `FF 0A`
or the container's, is detected as `image/jxl`, which the upstream fetch
accepts; `orig` of such a source is JPEG XL. The format `jxl` works in plain
and encrypted URLs and on the generator page, served as `image/jxl` and cached
like the other formats. `auto` chooses JPEG XL first when `Accept` names
`image/jxl`. govips sends libvips a JPEG XL distance with every save, so
libvips ignores the quality: pixa turns `q` into a distance with libvips' own
formula, keeping 100 lossy, and removes the metadata from the image before
saving, as govips cannot have libvips strip it from JPEG XL. libvips 8.16 and
later still write an EXIF block of their own into JPEG XL (orientation,
resolution, size, colour space, fixed defaults), with nothing from the source.
An image with an ICC profile is converted to sRGB before the JPEG XL save too,
and a CMYK image with none is converted to sRGB, as libvips cannot save CMYK
as JPEG XL. libvips' default effort, 7, is kept. JPEG XL is not yet the
default output.
