Public bug reported:

Due to the MaxMind legacy format of geoip free libraries being dropped,
anyone who does not pay for MaxMIND won't be able to use the in-built
GeoIP module in NGINX.

A third party module exists for GeoIP2 support.
https://github.com/leev/ngx_http_geoip2_module

Please include this.

Notes:

This was given a cursory review for Universe inclusion by Seth Arnold at
my request, and was ACK'd for being added and included in the packages
targeting Universe (-full, -extras, where GeoIP was already included).
