nginx-standard drop

[Elan Ruusamäe]

tl;dr;
i see all the "flavours" can be dropped and replaced with dynamic modules
so i'm dropping all subpackages (on dev-dynamic branch first)

mail can be dynamic too, from --help i see these can be built as shared:


[~/rpm/packages/BUILD.x86_64-linux/nginx-1.11.3] ➔ ./configure 
--help|grep =dynamic
   --with-http_xslt_module=dynamic    enable dynamic ngx_http_xslt_module
   --with-http_image_filter_module=dynamic
   --with-http_geoip_module=dynamic   enable dynamic ngx_http_geoip_module
   --with-http_perl_module=dynamic    enable dynamic ngx_http_perl_module
   --with-mail=dynamic                enable dynamic POP3/IMAP4/SMTP 
proxy module
   --with-stream=dynamic              enable dynamic TCP/UDP proxy module
   --with-stream_geoip_module=dynamic enable dynamic ngx_stream_geoip_module
[~/rpm/packages/BUILD.x86_64-linux/nginx-1.11.3] ➔

but so far i can't understand why it doesn't build dynamic files. 
probably different build flavours just overwrite something

so i'll drop all the flavours and do just single build and then figure 
out that dynamic thing.

version?
