you can't, unless you're ready to patch the JPEG codec in libtiff to do that

I should point to 
https://www.awaresystems.be/imaging/tiff/specification/TIFFTechNote2.txt 
which mentions:

"Writers should avoid including "noise" JPEG markers (COM and APPn markers).
Standard TIFF fields provide a better way to transport any non-image data.
Some JPEG codecs may change behavior if they see an APPn marker they
think they understand; since the TIFF spec requires these markers to be
ignored, this behavior is undesirable."
