AFAICT http2 support is currently intentionally dropped from curl
because the dependency nghttp2-dev is not in the 'main' archive, but in
the community supported 'universe' archive.

Quoting the curl package changelog:

 curl (7.52.1-4ubuntu1) zesty; urgency=low

  * Merge from Debian unstable.  Remaining changes:
    - Drop dependencies not in main:
      + Build-Depends: Drop libssh2-1-dev, and libnghttp2-dev.
      + Drop libssh2-1-dev from binary package Depends.
      + debian/control: drop --with-nghttp2

So, to resolve this issue it would seem that Canonical first must be
convinced to take on official support for the nghttp2 package. Not sure
how we're supposed to do that?

Cheering from the sideline has obviously not worked very well for this
issue so far. :)
