im_jpeg2vips() ignores weird APP1 chunks

Some JPEGs seem to have multiple APP1 chunks. There should only be one,
and it should only contain EXIF data (I think), but some seem to have
many.

This was causing problems: the loader was trying to read exif
from all chunks, and a second chunk with invalid data was zapping the
stored exif meta tag. As a result, things like

  vips im_copy a.jpg b.jpg

would appear to lose EXIF info if a.jpg had spurious APP1.
