Rationale for Update:

A goal of the Server Team is to have NGINX 1.10.0 (the next stable
release of NGINX) in Ubuntu Xenial, either as a post-Xenial-release SRU,
or right before we release, depending on when NGINX releases the 1.10.x
branch (which is based off the 1.9.x branch).

To reduce the delta between merges and uploads, and to reduce the amount of 
work necessary to switch from 1.9.x to 1.10.x in the future of Xenial, it is 
more preferable to have the latest 1.9.x available as close to 1.10.x release 
as possible; this makes it much more easier to deal with build failures, or to 
troubleshoot issues between versions, as there is less of an upstream delta.
There are new features, specifically with enabling some directives to work with 
HTTP/2.  There are also other bugfixes with regards to HTTP/2 and minor logging 
bugs.

HTTP/2 is going to be enabled in this upload, with Security team
approval (see
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nginx/+bug/1565043).  This
will be enabled for nginx-core, nginx-full, and nginx-extras.
