opj_compress gives Unknown input file format error for .tiff extension

[bitsgalore]

I'm using the following command:

opj_compress -i balloon_eciRGB.tiff -o balloon_eciRGB_opj.jp2

Result:

[ERROR] Unknown input file format: balloon_eciRGB.tiff
        Known file formats are *.pnm, *.pgm, *.ppm, *.pgx, *png, *.bmp, *.tif, *.raw or *.tga

So apparently opj_compress only recognises files with a tif extension as TIFF, but not the (common) tiff extension. Would be helpful if this was added as an alias.

Use this:
OpenJPEG don't compile with latest GCC 8.0.0. In file bio.c is error.

@Jamaika1 Please don't use this ticket for a unrelated issue with the original issue. If you get a compile error, please file a new ticket and put the compilation error messages instead of the file dump (not sure why you put the sources). For the record I tried the latest gcc 8.0 snapshot (it is still a development version by the way), and it compiles fine.

I'm sorry if the thread was cluttered. I know that the creators usually don't answer so simple questions. I'm answer in advance because I hear two answers: use linux with gcc or windows with visual studio.
I had a problem with gcc 8.0.0 in windows:
bio.c:167:1: error: wrong argument: "unsigned-integer-overflow"
{
^
bio.c:178:1: error: wrong argument: "unsigned-integer-overflow"
{
^
Perhaps this is a bug with gcc 8.0.0, so don't assume ticket. Only I erased the lines currently.

@Jamaika1 I believe your issue should be fixed with #955 I've just merged into master
