[Spice-devel] [PATCH 7/9] not using jpeg when sending a surface to the client (the whole surface)

[Yonit Halperin]

When a surface is sent to the client using red_send_surface_image, operations were already
performed on it. Thus it may combine, especially if it is a primary surface, both "picture-like" areas
and areas that are more "artificial". In order to avoid noticeable artifacts, such surface will be sent lossless.
