    Remove the libjasper-based JPEG2000 loader · 4a278c66

    Libjasper is not really maintained any more, and has been dropped by
    various Linux distributions over the years.
    
    GdkPixbuf has not enabled the JPEG2000 loader by default in many years,
    relying on downstream distributors to do so if they also shipped
    libjasper. This means that it's unlikely anybody has relied on GdkPixbuf
    to load a JPEG2000 image for the past 3 to 5 years, if at all.
    
    The only other option for loading JPEG2000 images is to use OpenJPEG,
    and for that there is an out of tree GdkPixbuf module available:
