Proposed submission for SDL_image to add a native iPhone OS backend to replace the need for 3rd party libjpeg, libpng, libgif, libtiff, and a few others.

The existing SDL_image implementation relies on 3rd-party libjpeg, libpng, libgif, and libtiff which is a pain to build and maintain. In the Mac release, we currently statically link all these libraries into the framework. But iPhone has built-in support for these libraries. This submission uses UIImage to load these image formats.

Repository is now merged with the SDL_Image_ImageIO repo.
