I have uploaded a package for sponsoring by the SRU team.

** Description changed:

  Since LP: #1797386, openssl with TLS 1.3 support is available on Bionic.
  This had the nice side effect of enabling TLS 1.3 for various services
  (nginx, postfix, dovecot, etc) but not apache2.
  
  TLS 1.3 support is required to use the "modern compatibility"
  configuration recommended by Mozilla [1]. Since Bionic is an LTS release
  and apache2 is popular and in main, it would be nice to have support for
  TLS 1.3.
  
  According to [2], support for TLS 1.3 was added in version 2.4.36 while
  Bionic ships 2.4.29. Disco ships with 2.4.38 so should be OK.

+ 
+ [Regression Potential]
+ 
+ Enabling TLSv1.3 as an SRU will introduce a new protocol in certain
+ environments. This may be problematic for a small number of users, but
+ the benefit of having TLSv1.3 enabled greatly outweighs that.
+ 
+ From an update point of view, the patchset is quite large, but it has
+ been tested by the QRT script, and in production by users.

** Changed in: apache2 (Ubuntu Bionic)
