I expect to receive lots of flak for saying this, but I support making libjpeg be a standard spkg using the source code from https://libjpeg.sourceforge.net. I just built version jpeg-9e on Ubuntu 18.04 and macOS 10.13. The standard ./configure ; make install method works flawlessly - not even any warnings. The build is fast and the package is small. Installing it in sage/local/lib will be simpler, faster and more reliable than guessing where it might be found on any of the zillion systems that Sage runs on. Also, unlike the turbo alternatives, it does not depend on fancy features of Intel hardware which will not be available on old Intel CPUs or recent Arm CPUs.
