Requesting wget2 package.

GNU Wget2 is the successor of GNU Wget, a file and recursive website downloader. Designed and written from scratch it wraps around libwget, that provides the basic functions needed by a web client.  Wget2 works multi-threaded and uses many features to allow fast operation.  In many cases Wget2 downloads much faster than Wget1.x due to HTTP2, HTTP compression, parallel connections and use of If-Modified-Since HTTP header. GNU Wget2 is licensed under GPLv3+. Libwget is licensed under LGPLv3+.

https://gitlab.com/gnuwget/wget2

At first glance we may need these packages as well for the wget2 build requirements:
autopoint
doxygen (for creating the documentation)
pandoc (for creating the wget2 man page)
liblzma >= 5.1.1alpha (optional, if you want HTTP lzma decompression)
libbz2 >= 1.0.6 (optional, if you want HTTP bzip2 decompression)
libbrotlidec/libbrotli >= 1.0.0 (optional, if you want HTTP brotli decompression)
libidn2 >= 0.14 (libidn >= 1.25 if you don't have libidn2)
libpsl >= 0.5.0
libmicrohttpd >= 0.9.51 (optional, if you want to run the test suite)
lcov (optional, for coverage reports)
libhsts (optional, to support HSTS preload lists)

Hi Matthew

Thanks for the information on wget2.

We will analyze and see the effort involved.
