Description

DCMTK internally uses the Independent JPEG Group library with the lossless patch to perform JPEG encoding and decoding.
Apparently some external developers would like to use this library directly, not just the DCMTK wrapper that actively hides the IJG API.
This would simply require us to install the IJG header files when running "make install" since the libraries get installed anyway.
For this purpose, the header files should perhaps be moved into a separate directory, so that they could be used
for example like this: #include "dcmtk/dcmjpeg/ijg/jpeglib12.h"
