//! Writing a capture as a baseline JPEG.
//!
//! Port of `src/capture/jpg.{hpp,cpp}`. Behind the `jpeg` feature, as upstream
//! puts it behind a build switch and for the same reason: a second image
//! format is not something every consumer wants, and the dependency should
//! follow the want.
//!
//! JPEG is lossy and has no alpha. Both matter to a caller choosing between
//! this and PNG: a screenshot of a translucent decoration keeps its
//! translucency in PNG and is flattened here, and text will show ringing.
//! What it buys is size, which is why a camera frame goes out this way.

/// `quality` is clamped into `1..=100` rather than refused. It is a knob a
/// caller passes through from a config file or a command line, and a
/// screenshot is not worth failing over a number that only ever means
/// "as good as possible" or "as small as possible" at the ends.
///
/// The clamp is belt-and-braces: the encoder accepts `0` and `255` without
/// complaint, so removing it changes no observable behaviour — verified by
/// injection. It stays because that is the encoder's business rather than a
/// promise, and a caller reading this signature should be able to trust the
/// stated range without checking what the encoder does with the rest.
///
/// The pixels are un-premultiplied first, exactly as the PNG path does.
/// Encoding premultiplied colour without its alpha darkens every partly
/// transparent pixel toward black — a translucent decoration would come out
/// looking like a dark one, rather than like itself over white.
