The original commit describes the reason for disabling openssl so as to get 'more deterministic build[s]' and size-reduction: commit 6c36fde6ce2e ("libevent: disable openssl by default"), commit ad130b97a51a in poky.
Since the introduction of per-recipe sysroots, we always have deterministic builds. Size reduction can be achieved by splitting the package into multiple sub-packages, which each only provide one of the shared libraries. Hence there appears no reason anymore to disable OpenSSL support. Because this recipe only provides shared libraries which are handled automatically by bitbake, there is no need to add the subpackages to the RDEPENDS of PN for backwards compatibility. The packageing process of dependees will simply pull in the sub-packages as runtime dependency as needed. This also how Debian splits this up. While updating the packaging, we can also drop event_rpcgen.py which appears to be a tool for generating rpc bindings, i.e. something that should normally be in -dev. Given Debian doesn't package this at all, and given it actually requires python to run but no runtime dependency is stated at the moment, it would appear that no users of this exist. These changes also allow us to build all of nghttp2 out-of-the-box, without affecting existing users.
