Add a note to the docs for the service defaults config entry which
informs users that the service protocol can be configured for all
services using the proxy defaults config entry.

The main branch is being renamed from master->main. This commit should
update all references to the main branch to the new name.

CatalogDestinationsOnly is a passthrough that would enable dialing
addresses outside of Consul's catalog. However, when this flag is set to
true only _connect_ endpoints for services can be dialed.
This flag is being renamed to signal that non-Connect endpoints can't be
dialed by transparent proxies when the value is set to true.
* Docs for Unix Domain Sockets
There are a number of cases where a user might wish to either 1)
expose a service through a Unix Domain Socket in the filesystem
('downstream') or 2) connect to an upstream service by a local unix
domain socket (upstream).
As of Consul (1.10-beta2) we've added new syntax and support to configure
the Envoy proxy to support this
To connect to a service via local Unix Domain Socket instead of a
port, add local_bind_socket_path and optionally local_bind_socket_mode
to the upstream config for a service:
upstreams = [
{
destination_name = "service-1"
local_bind_socket_path = "/tmp/socket_service_1"
local_bind_socket_mode = "0700"
...
}
...
]
This will cause Envoy to create a socket with the path and mode
provided, and connect that to service-1
The mode field is optional, and if omitted will use the default mode
for Envoy. This is not applicable for abstract sockets. See
https://www.envoyproxy.io/docs/envoy/latest/api-v3/config/core/v3/address.proto#envoy-v3-api-msg-config-core-v3-pipe
for details
NOTE: These options conflict the local_bind_socket_port and
local_bind_socket_address options. We can bind to an port or we can
bind to a socket, but not both.
To expose a service listening on a Unix Domain socket to the service
mesh use either the 'socket_path' field in the service definition or the
'local_service_socket_path' field in the proxy definition. These
fields are analogous to the 'port' and 'service_port' fields in their
respective locations.
services {
name = "service-2"
socket_path = "/tmp/socket_service_2"
...
}
OR
proxy {
local_service_socket_path = "/tmp/socket_service_2"
...
}
There is no mode field since the service is expected to create the
socket it is listening on, not the Envoy proxy.
Again, the socket_path and local_service_socket_path fields conflict
with address/port and local_service_address/local_service_port
configuration entries.
Set up a simple service mesh with dummy services:
socat -d UNIX-LISTEN:/tmp/downstream.sock,fork UNIX-CONNECT:/tmp/upstream.sock
socat -v tcp-l:4444,fork exec:/bin/cat
services {
name = "sock_forwarder"
id = "sock_forwarder.1"
socket_path = "/tmp/downstream.sock"
connect {
sidecar_service {
proxy {
upstreams = [
{
destination_name = "echo-service"
local_bind_socket_path = "/tmp/upstream.sock"
config {
passive_health_check {
interval = "10s"
max_failures = 42
}
}
}
]
}
}
}
}
services {
name = "echo-service"
port = 4444
connect = { sidecar_service {} }
Kind = "ingress-gateway"
Name = "ingress-service"
Listeners = [
{
Port = 8080
Protocol = "tcp"
Services = [
{
Name = "sock_forwarder"
}
]
}
]
consul agent -dev -enable-script-checks -config-dir=./consul.d
consul connect envoy -sidecar-for sock_forwarder.1
consul connect envoy -sidecar-for echo-service -admin-bind localhost:19001
consul config write ingress-gateway.hcl
consul connect envoy -gateway=ingress -register -service ingress-service -address '{{ GetInterfaceIP "eth0" }}:8888' -admin-bind localhost:19002

Initially we were loading every potential upstream address into Envoy
and then routing traffic to the logical upstream service. The downside
of this behavior is that traffic meant to go to a specific instance
would be load balanced across ALL instances.
Traffic to specific instance IPs should be forwarded to the original
destination and if it's a destination in the mesh then we should ensure
the appropriate certificates are used.
This PR makes transparent proxying a Kubernetes-only feature for now
since support for other environments requires generating virtual IPs,
and Consul does not do that at the moment.
The only thing that needed fixing up pertained to this section of the 1.18.x release notes:
> grpc_stats: the default value for stats_for_all_methods is switched from true to false, in order to avoid possible memory exhaustion due to an untrusted downstream sending a large number of unique method names. The previous default value was deprecated in version 1.14.0. This only changes the behavior when the value is not set. The previous behavior can be used by setting the value to true. This behavior change by be overridden by setting runtime feature envoy.deprecated_features.grpc_stats_filter_enable_stats_for_all_methods_by_default.
For now to maintain status-quo I'm explicitly setting `stats_for_all_methods=true` in all versions to avoid relying upon the default.
Additionally the naming of the emitted metrics for these gRPC requests changed slightly so the integration test assertions for `case-grpc` needed adjusting.
This config entry is being renamed primarily because in k8s the name
cluster could be confusing given that the config entry applies across
federated datacenters.
Additionally, this config entry will only apply to Consul as a service
mesh, so the more generic "cluster" name is not needed.

Note that this does NOT upgrade to xDS v3. That will come in a future PR.
Additionally:
- Ignored staticcheck warnings about how github.com/golang/protobuf is deprecated.
- Shuffled some agent/xds imports in advance of a later xDS v3 upgrade.
- Remove support for envoy 1.13.x but don't add in 1.17.x yet. We have to wait until the xDS v3 support is added in a follow-up PR.
