Bug Description

The Security team has recently given the OK to enable HTTP/2 in NGINX for Xenial.

Please activate it for nginx-core, nginx-extras, nginx-full, and nginx-light.

Upstream, in Debian, it is being enabled for all versions as part of the dynamic modules changes; even though dynamic modules are not being enabled here, it would be good to ahve this enabled for all flavors. Debian anonscm git commit for this is http://anonscm.debian.org/cgit/collab-maint/nginx.git/tree/debian/rules?h=dyn#n53, with https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=816095 being the Debian bug that has a 'pending' change.

Before I enable HTTP/2 in nginx-light, I will discuss with the Server team. Debian does, indeed, have it enabled in nginx-full and nginx-extras, and nginx-core will have it as it closely mirrors nginx-full.

This will be considered for the next upload, otherwise.

summary: - Please enable HTTP/2 in NGINX
+ Please enable HTTP/2 in NGINX for Xenial

We will not be enabling HTTP/2 for nginx-light. nginx-full and nginx-extras, as well as nginx-core, will have http/2 enabled.
