JPEG qtables iteration failure causes a NULL dereference in Image.save() #9917

Summary

Image.save() first validates the JPEG qtables sequence and then reads it again during encoding.
If the sequence raises an exception when it is read again, Pillow crashes instead of propagating the exception.

Versions

Pillow 12.3.0, CPython 3.12.3, Ubuntu 24.04 x86_64, glibc 2.39.

Reproducer

from io import BytesIO
from PIL import Image

class SecondIterRaises(list):
    def __init__(self, values):
        super().__init__(values)
        self.calls = 0

    def __iter__(self):
        self.calls += 1
        if self.calls == 1:
            return super().__iter__()
        raise RuntimeError("second iteration failed")

Image.new("RGB", (1, 1)).save(
    BytesIO(),
    format="JPEG",
    qtables=SecondIterRaises([[1] * 64]),
)

Running it produces:

Segmentation fault (core dumped)

I found this while fuzzing Python C extension modules for a small research project.
