This PR both prevents a blank CA config from being written out to
a snapshot and allows Consul to gracefully recover from a snapshot
with an invalid CA config.
Fixes#4954.

This PR is almost a complete rewrite of the ACL system within Consul. It brings the features more in line with other HashiCorp products. Obviously there is quite a bit left to do here but most of it is related docs, testing and finishing the last few commands in the CLI. I will update the PR description and check off the todos as I finish them over the next few days/week.
Description
At a high level this PR is mainly to split ACL tokens from Policies and to split the concepts of Authorization from Identities. A lot of this PR is mostly just to support CRUD operations on ACLTokens and ACLPolicies. These in and of themselves are not particularly interesting. The bigger conceptual changes are in how tokens get resolved, how backwards compatibility is handled and the separation of policy from identity which could lead the way to allowing for alternative identity providers.
On the surface and with a new cluster the ACL system will look very similar to that of Nomads. Both have tokens and policies. Both have local tokens. The ACL management APIs for both are very similar. I even ripped off Nomad's ACL bootstrap resetting procedure. There are a few key differences though.
Nomad requires token and policy replication where Consul only requires policy replication with token replication being opt-in. In Consul local tokens only work with token replication being enabled though.
All policies in Nomad are globally applicable. In Consul all policies are stored and replicated globally but can be scoped to a subset of the datacenters. This allows for more granular access management.
Unlike Nomad, Consul has legacy baggage in the form of the original ACL system. The ramifications of this are:
A server running the new system must still support other clients using the legacy system.
A client running the new system must be able to use the legacy RPCs when the servers in its datacenter are running the legacy system.
The primary ACL DC's servers running in legacy mode needs to be a gate that keeps everything else in the entire multi-DC cluster running in legacy mode.
So not only does this PR implement the new ACL system but has a legacy mode built in for when the cluster isn't ready for new ACLs. Also detecting that new ACLs can be used is automatic and requires no configuration on the part of administrators. This process is detailed more in the "Transitioning from Legacy to New ACL Mode" section below.
* Support multiple tags for health and catalog api endpoints
Fixes#1781.
Adds a `ServiceTags` field to the ServiceSpecificRequest to support
multiple tags, updates the filter logic in the catalog store, and
propagates these change through to the health and catalog endpoints.
Note: Leaves `ServiceTag` in the struct, since it is being used as
part of the DNS lookup, which in turn uses the health check.
* Update the api package to support multiple tags
Includes additional tests.
* Update new tests to use the `require` library
* Update HealthConnect check after a bad merge
* [Performance On Large clusters] Checks do update services/nodes only when really modified to avoid too many updates on very large clusters
In a large cluster, when having a few thousands of nodes, the anti-entropy
mechanism performs lots of changes (several per seconds) while
there is no real change. This patch wants to improve this in order
to increase Consul scalability when using many blocking requests on
health for instance.
* [Performance for large clusters] Only updates index of service if service is really modified
* [Performance for large clusters] Only updates index of nodes if node is really modified
* Added comments / ensure IsSame() has clear semantics
* Avoid having modified boolean, return nil directly if stutures are Same
* Fixed unstable unit tests TestLeader_ChangeServerID
* Rewrite TestNode_IsSame() for better readability as suggested by @banks
* Rename ServiceNode.IsSame() into IsSameService() + added unit tests
* Do not duplicate TestStructs_ServiceNode_Conversions() and increase test coverage of IsSameService
* Clearer documentation in IsSameService
* Take into account ServiceProxy into ServiceNode.IsSameService()
* Fixed IsSameService() with all new structures
* Refactor Service Definition ProxyDestination.

* Fix translated keys in API registration.
≈
* Fixes from docs
- omit some empty undocumented fields in API
- Bring back ServiceProxyDestination in Catalog responses to not break backwards compat - this was removed assuming it was only used internally.
* Documentation updates for Upstreams in service definition
* Fixes for tests broken by many refactors.
* Enable travis on f-connect branch in this branch too.
* Add consistent Deprecation comments to ProxyDestination uses
* Update version number on deprecation notices, and correct upstream datacenter field with explanation in docs
* Implementation of Weights Data structures
Adding this datastructure will allow us to resolve the
issues #1088 and #4198
This new structure defaults to values:
```
{ Passing: 1, Warning: 0 }
```
Which means, use weight of 0 for a Service in Warning State
while use Weight 1 for a Healthy Service.
Thus it remains compatible with previous Consul versions.
* Implemented weights for DNS SRV Records
* DNS properly support agents with weight support while server does not (backwards compatibility)
* Use Warning value of Weights of 1 by default
When using DNS interface with only_passing = false, all nodes
with non-Critical healthcheck used to have a weight value of 1.
While having weight.Warning = 0 as default value, this is probably
a bad idea as it breaks ascending compatibility.
Thus, we put a default value of 1 to be consistent with existing behaviour.
* Added documentation for new weight field in service description
* Better documentation about weights as suggested by @banks
* Return weight = 1 for unknown Check states as suggested by @banks
* Fixed typo (of -> or) in error message as requested by @mkeeler
* Fixed unstable unit test TestRetryJoin
* Fixed unstable tests
* Fixed wrong Fatalf format in `testrpc/wait.go`
* Added notes regarding DNS SRV lookup limitations regarding number of instances
* Documentation fixes and clarification regarding SRV records with weights as requested by @banks
* Rephrase docs
* Display more information about check being not properly added when it fails
It follows an incident where we add lots of error messages:
[WARN] consul.fsm: EnsureRegistration failed: failed inserting check: Missing service registration
That seems related to Consul failing to restart on respective agents.
Having Node information as well as service information would help diagnose the issue.
* Renamed ensureCheckIfNodeMatches() as requested by @banks
* Allow to rename nodes with IDs, will fix#3974 and #4413
This change allow to rename any well behaving recent agent with an
ID to be renamed safely, ie: without taking the name of another one
with case insensitive comparison.
Deprecated behaviour warning
----------------------------
Due to asceding compatibility, it is still possible however to
"take" the name of another name by not providing any ID.
Note that when not providing any ID, it is possible to have 2 nodes
having similar names with case differences, ie: myNode and mynode
which might lead to DB corruption on Consul server side and
lead to server not properly restarting.
See #3983 and #4399 for Context about this change.
Disabling registration of nodes without IDs as specified in #4414
should probably be the way to go eventually.
* Removed the case-insensitive search when adding a node within the else
block since it breaks the test TestAgentAntiEntropy_Services
While the else case is probably legit, it will be fixed with #4414 in
a later release.
* Added again the test in the else to avoid duplicated names, but
enforce this test only for nodes having IDs.
Thus most tests without any ID will work, and allows us fixing
* Added more tests regarding request with/without IDs.
`TestStateStore_EnsureNode` now test registration and renaming with IDs
`TestStateStore_EnsureNodeDeprecated` tests registration without IDs
and tests removing an ID from a node as well as updated a node
without its ID (deprecated behaviour kept for backwards compatibility)
* Do not allow renaming in case of conflict, including when other node has no ID
* Fixed function GetNodeID that was not working due to wrong type when searching node from its ID
Thus, all tests about renaming were not working properly.
Added the full test cas that allowed me to detect it.
* Better error messages, more tests when nodeID is not a valid UUID in GetNodeID()
* Added separate TestStateStore_GetNodeID to test GetNodeID.
More complete test coverage for GetNodeID
* Added new unit test `TestStateStore_ensureNoNodeWithSimilarNameTxn`
Also fixed comments to be clearer after remarks from @banks
* Fixed error message in unit test to match test case
* Use uuid.ParseUUID to parse Node.ID as requested by @mkeeler
Since DNS is case insensitive and DB as issues when similar names with different
cases are added, check for unicity based on case insensitivity.
Following another big incident we had in our cluster, we also validate
that adding/renaming a not does not conflicts with case insensitive
matches.
We had the following error once:
- one node called: mymachine.MYDC.mydomain was shut off
- another node (different ID) was added with name: mymachine.mydc.mydomain before
72 hours
When restarting the consul server of domain, the consul server restarted failed
to start since it detected an issue in RAFT database because
mymachine.MYDC.mydomain and mymachine.mydc.mydomain had the same names.
Checking at registration time with case insensitivity should definitly fix
those issues and avoid Consul DB corruption.
Intention de-duplication in previously merged PR actualy failed some tests that were not caught be me or CI. I ran the test files for state changes but they happened not to trigger this case so I made sure they did first and then fixed. That fixed some upstream intention endpoint tests that I'd not run as part of testing the previous fix.
