Added a shared secret over Redis cluster. (#13763)
The PR introduces a new shared secret that is shared over all the nodes
on the Redis cluster. The main idea is to leverage the cluster bus to
share a secret between all the nodes such that later the nodes will be
able to authenticate using this secret and send internal commands to
each other (see #13740 for more information about internal commands).

The way the shared secret is chosen is the following:
1. Each node, when start, randomly generate its own internal secret.
2. Each node share its internal secret over the cluster ping messages.
3. If a node gets a ping message with secret smaller then his current
secret, it embrace it.
4. Eventually all nodes should embrace the minimal secret

The converges of the secret is as good as the topology converges.

To extend the ping messages to contain the secret, we leverage the
extension mechanism. Nodes that runs an older Redis version will just
ignore those extensions.

Specific tests were added to verify that eventually all nodes see the
secrets. In addition, a verification was added to the test infra to
verify the secret on `cluster_config_consistent` and to
`assert_cluster_state`.

Redis Test Suite

The normal execution mode of the test suite involves starting and manipulating local redis-server instances, inspecting process state, log files, etc.

The test suite also supports execution against an external server, which is enabled using the --host and --port parameters. When executing against an external server, tests tagged external:skip are skipped.

There are additional runtime options that can further adjust the test suite to match different external server configurations:

Option Impact
--singledb Only use database 0, don't assume others are supported.
--ignore-encoding Skip all checks for specific encoding.
--ignore-digest Skip key value digest validations.
--cluster-mode Run in strict Redis Cluster compatibility mode.
--large-memory Enables tests that consume more than 100mb

Tags

Tags are applied to tests to classify them according to the subsystem they test, but also to indicate compatibility with different run modes and required capabilities.

Tags can be applied in different context levels:

  • start_server context
  • tags context that bundles several tests together
  • A single test context.

The following compatibility and capability tags are currently used:

Tag Indicates
external:skip Not compatible with external servers.
cluster:skip Not compatible with --cluster-mode.
large-memory Test that requires more than 100mb
tls:skip Not compatible with --tls.
needs:repl Uses replication and needs to be able to SYNC from server.
needs:debug Uses the DEBUG command or other debugging focused commands (like OBJECT REFCOUNT).
needs:pfdebug Uses the PFDEBUG command.
needs:config-maxmemory Uses CONFIG SET to manipulate memory limit, eviction policies, etc.
needs:config-resetstat Uses CONFIG RESETSTAT to reset statistics.
needs:reset Uses RESET to reset client connections.
needs:save Uses SAVE or BGSAVE to create an RDB file.

When using an external server (--host and --port), filtering using the external:skip tags is done automatically.

When using --cluster-mode, filtering using the cluster:skip tag is done automatically.

When not using --large-memory, filtering using the largemem:skip tag is done automatically.

In addition, it is possible to specify additional configuration. For example, to run tests on a server that does not permit SYNC use:

./runtest --host <host> --port <port> --tags -needs:repl
