Public bug reported:

There are a number of bugs fixed in the HTTP DAV module shipped with
nginx by upstream, and a workaround to an HTTP/2 bug.

The following is the changelog for NGINX 1.15.3:

Changes with nginx 1.15.3                                        28 Aug
2018

    *) Feature: now TLSv1.3 can be used with BoringSSL.

    *) Feature: the "ssl_early_data" directive, currently available with
       BoringSSL.

    *) Feature: the "keepalive_timeout" and "keepalive_requests" directives
       in the "upstream" block.

    *) Bugfix: the ngx_http_dav_module did not truncate destination file
       when copying a file over an existing one with the COPY method.

    *) Bugfix: the ngx_http_dav_module used zero access rights on the
       destination file and did not preserve file modification time when
       moving a file between different file systems with the MOVE method.

    *) Bugfix: the ngx_http_dav_module used default access rights when
       copying a file with the COPY method.

    *) Workaround: some clients might not work when using HTTP/2; the bug
       had appeared in 1.13.5.

    *) Bugfix: nginx could not be built with LibreSSL 2.8.0.

The only 'Feature' change here of relevance is that "keepalive_timeout"
and "keepalive_requests" can be provided in the 'upstream' block of a
config, but functionally there are no other changes.

The other two feature changes are BoringSSL-specific, and not relevant
for Cosmic as we use OpenSSL for ouir builds.

The remaining bugfixes should be included to fix issues with the HTTP
DAV module.

The regression risk of this is low, as these bugfixes originated
upstream.
