Master Branch update Nginx dynamic TLS & HPACK patch support in 123.09beta01

update Nginx dynamic TLS & HPACK patch support in 123.09beta01

- Update optional HTTP/2 HPACK full encoding & TLS dynamic record size patch support for Nginx 1.21.5 and 1.21.6
- Added 2 variables to control the max Nginx version supported for patching to control any future breakage in Nginx new versions

NGINX_HPACK_ALLOWED_VER='1021006' # Max allowed Nginx version for Nginx HTTP/2 HPACK full encoding patch support
NGINX_DYNAMICTLS_ALLOWED_VER='1021006' # Max allowed Nginx version for Nginx Dynamic TLS patch support

---

These 2 variables can also be set in persistent config file /etc/centminmod/custom_config.inc to override the defaults to enable newer Nginx versions to at least try to patch HTTP/2 HPACK and TLS dynamic record size patches. i.e. setting below will allow Nginx 1.21.7 to try patching

NGINX_HPACK_ALLOWED_VER='1021007' # Max allowed Nginx version for Nginx HTTP/2 HPACK full encoding patch support
NGINX_DYNAMICTLS_ALLOWED_VER='1021007' # Max allowed Nginx version for Nginx Dynamic TLS patch support

Though if Nginx 1.21.7 has breaking code changes that break patch support, the Nginx will fail to patch and Nginx server may not start properly. Hence, why optional HTTP/2 HPACK full encoding & TLS dynamic record size patch support is always incrementally tested and enabled with each Nginx version. You can use these 2 new variables to control this before Centmin Mod's official updates.
