Normally, git doesn't need to set curl to select the HTTP version, it
works fine without HTTP2. Adding HTTP2 support is a icing on the cake.

Just a FYI:

Starting with libcurl 7.62.0 (released a week ago), it now defaults to the
"2TLS" setting unless you tell it otherwise. With 2TLS, libcurl will attempt
to use HTTP/2 for HTTPS URLs.

With this information, I think I would rather we rely on libcurl to do
this rather than putting it in Git.  Users will automatically get the
best supported protocol instead of having to configure it manually.

Yup.  I suspect that the mechanism _might_ turn out to be useful to
force downgrading, though.
