Title:
  Backport brotli 1.0.3 to Ubuntu 16.04 LTS

Status in brotli package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in brotli source package in Xenial:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  Note to SRU Team
  ================
  This update adds a new binary package: libbrotli1

  We need libbrotli1 and libbrotli-dev promoted to main. python-brotli
  and python3-brotli can remain in universe.

  The approved MIR which mentions this will be done is LP: #1737053

  Impact
  ======
  webkit2gtk 2.20 released in March 2018 dropped its embedded brotli and woff2 libraries to use the system libraries. Because that version is a security update, webkit2gtk has not had support for woff2 web fonts since then in Ubuntu 16.04 LTS.

  The version of brotli in Ubuntu 16.04 LTS is too old to support
  webkit2gtk so we are backporting the version from Ubuntu 18.04 LTS

  Test Case
  =========
  1. Verify that woff2 is able to build successfully against brotli.

  2. Build webkit2gtk against woff2 and verify that woff2 fonts appear
  to work on web sites.

  Regression Potential
  ====================
  brotli has no reverse dependencies in Ubuntu 16.04 LTS.

  The new version is substantially more usable since it now offers a C
  library instead of just the Python bindings.

  This version also introduces a basic autopkgtest to ensure basic use
  of the Python bindings work. There are also build tests.

  Other Info
  ==========
  brotli is also used by apache2 in Ubuntu 18.10.

  The woff2 SRU for Ubuntu 16.04 LTS is LP: #1795094
