Previously, these endpoints required `service:write` permission on _any_
service as a sort of proxy for "is the caller allowed to participate in
the mesh?".
Now, they're called as part of the process of establishing a server
connection by any consumer of the consul-server-connection-manager
library, which will include non-mesh workloads (e.g. Consul KV as a
storage backend for Vault) as well as ancillary components such as
consul-k8s' acl-init process, which likely won't have `service:write`
permission.
So this commit relaxes those requirements to accept *any* valid ACL token
on the following gRPC endpoints:
- `hashicorp.consul.dataplane.DataplaneService/GetSupportedDataplaneFeatures`
- `hashicorp.consul.serverdiscovery.ServerDiscoveryService/WatchServers`
- `hashicorp.consul.connectca.ConnectCAService/WatchRoots`
Contains 2 changes to the GetEnvoyBootstrapParams response to support
consul-dataplane.
Exposing node_name and node_id:
consul-dataplane will support providing either the node_id or node_name in its
configuration. Unfortunately, supporting both in the xDS meta adds a fair amount
of complexity (partly because most tables are currently indexed on node_name)
so for now we're going to return them both from the bootstrap params endpoint,
allowing consul-dataplane to exchange a node_id for a node_name (which it will
supply in the xDS meta).
Properly setting service for gateways:
To avoid the need to special case gateways in consul-dataplane, service will now
either be the destination service name for connect proxies, or the gateway
service name. This means it can be used as-is in Envoy configuration (i.e. as a
cluster name or in metric tags).
