explicitly set do_fancy_downsampling to FALSE 

Apparently, when settings dinfo.raw_data_in,
previous version jpeg automatically set dinfo.do_fancy_downsampling to
FALSE. Newer versions (since 7) of media-libs/jpeg do not do that anymore and
the program must do it explicitly (although I have not found any documentation
to that effect). 

Compile tested only, but a similar fix in mjpegtools (but output rather than
input) works.
