For years curl is reluctant[1] to add HTTP2 support because nghttp2 has too many dependencies not in [core].

I propose to split nghttp2 in a tools package and a library package. I already did some work and made a PKGBUILD that works for me.

This PKGBUILD will create three packages:
* libnghttp2, containing the library and header files
* libnghttp2_aiso C++ asio library with dependency on boost_libs
* nghttp2 containing n2load, nghttp, nghttpx and nghttpd

Reason for closing:  Won't implement
Additional comments about closing:  They would still all have to go to core, so this doesn't solve anything
