Dear Maintainer,

Debian's patches [1] to the cjxl manpage have diverged from cjxl functionality.

The --jpeg_store_metadata is now --allow_jpeg_reconstruction. Attempting to use --jpeg_store_metadata results in an error.

See upstream commit [2] 002e5af02bce6838a937f8357d05e0185e11b95c for details.

Please fix the manpage, it confuses users on debian stable (trixie).

There may be other differences between `man cjxl` and `cjxl -h -v -v -v -v` (yes, that many -v), I did not check.
