Mention http2 in the API/UI performance documentation #62032

Description

@pierrejeambrun

In the UI currently some requests are queued and stalled until one of the 6 TCP connections is available. This happens when there are a lot of requests being sent at a time, for example on the grid view.

When using http2, browsers does not have the 6 request per origin limit (in opposition to http1),

In addition http2 provides some other benefits, having the option would be great and should improve the API overall performance.

I think we should improve the documentation so we can mention this as a performance improvement. (This should be implemented at the proxy level -> nginx and we can cross reference how to run behind proxy)
