Consider making the build-time dependency on nghttp2 optional

Right now, the main branch needs nghttp2 to be available in order for BIND 9 to build at all. Since nghttp2 is only required for DNS-over-HTTPS (DoH) support - which we promised to backport to BIND 9.16 at some point - it looks slightly harsh to have a new, hard requirement on another library (even if it is a rather ubiquitous and not version-picky one), especially in light of a future BIND 9.16 backport.

We should probably discuss whether nghttp2 should be considered mandatory for:

  • BIND 9.17+
  • BIND 9.16

Any changes in this area should be "announced" in:

  • README.md
  • PLATFORMS.md
  • release notes.
