Carlos Goncalves d2d5fc80f8 Add ALPN support for TLS-enabled pools
ALPN is a TLS extension for application-layer protocol negotiation
within the TLS handshake [1].

This patch extends the Pool API to include a new 'alpn_protocols'
parameter. With this parameter, users can set an ALPN preference list
(descending order of preference) to be advertised by load balancer to
members.

This patch also adds HTTP/2 over TLS support to TLS-enabled pools to the
Amphora provider driver, although default the pool ALPN protocol list
configuration setting has HTTP/2 disabled similarly to the default
listener ALPN protocol list value added in Victoria release.
