Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
Websites block access to HTTP/1 but if sent HTTP/2 everything works correctly

Describe the solution you'd like
Ability to send basic requests using HTTP/2 possibly using https://github.com/jawah/niquests

Describe the use-case and give concrete real-world examples
get requests to certain APIs will fail unless sent by HTTP/2. Tested using Postman. Sent a request using HTTP/1.1 and it was denied. Sent the same request by HTTP/2 and was granted access.

Research direction

Start by locating changedetection.io's existing HTTP client and dependency configuration, then review whether niquests supports the requested basic HTTP/2 requests. Check the project's request-related tests, if present, and confirm that the same APIs that fail over HTTP/1.1 can be requested successfully over HTTP/2 without breaking existing behavior.
