98a64bd296b06ea0dddf91b08134871158609bbf build: disable libjpeg in qt (fanquake)
Pull request description:
When gitian building on Windows I'm seeing:
```bash
checking for Qt 5... yes
checking for > Qt 5.7... yes
checking for main in -limm32... yes
checking for main in -lz ... yes
checking for library containing jpeg_create_decompress ... configure: WARNING: libjpeg not found. Assuming qt has it built-in
no
checking for library containing png_error ... -lqtlibpng
checking for library containing pcre2_match_16... -lqtpcre2
checking for library containing hb_ot_tags_from_script ... -lqtharfbuzz
```
We are passing `-qt-libjpeg` to Qt:
e6e99d4f75/depends/packages/qt.mk (L66)
but I dont think we are doing anything with `jpeg` related regardless?

Bitcoin Core
Setup
Bitcoin Core is the original Bitcoin client and it builds the backbone of the network. It downloads and, by default, stores the entire history of Bitcoin transactions, which requires a few hundred gigabytes of disk space. Depending on the speed of your computer and network connection, the synchronization process can take anywhere from a few hours to a day or more.
To download Bitcoin Core, visit bitcoincore.org.
Running
The following are some helpful notes on how to run Bitcoin Core on your native platform.
Unix
Unpack the files into a directory and run:
bin/bitcoin-qt(GUI) orbin/bitcoind(headless)
Windows
Unpack the files into a directory, and then run bitcoin-qt.exe.
macOS
Drag Bitcoin Core to your applications folder, and then run Bitcoin Core.
