Intentions ACL enforcement updates (#7028)
* Renamed structs.IntentionWildcard to structs.WildcardSpecifier

* Refactor ACL Config

Get rid of remnants of enterprise only renaming.

Add a WildcardName field for specifying what string should be used to indicate a wildcard.

* Add wildcard support in the ACL package

For read operations they can call anyAllowed to determine if any read access to the given resource would be granted.

For write operations they can call allAllowed to ensure that write access is granted to everything.

* Make v1/agent/connect/authorize namespace aware

* Update intention ACL enforcement

This also changes how intention:read is granted. Before the Intention.List RPC would allow viewing an intention if the token had intention:read on the destination. However Intention.Match allowed viewing if access was allowed for either the source or dest side. Now Intention.List and Intention.Get fall in line with Intention.Matches previous behavior.

Due to this being done a few different places ACL enforcement for a singular intention is now done with the CanRead and CanWrite methods on the intention itself.

* Refactor Intention.Apply to make things easier to follow.

# Connect - Agent HTTP API
The `/agent/connect` endpoints interact with [Connect](/docs/connect/index.html)
with agent-local operations.
These endpoints may mirror the [non-agent Connect endpoints](/api/connect.html)
in some cases. Almost all agent-local Connect endpoints perform local caching
to optimize performance of Connect without having to make requests to the server.
## Authorize
This endpoint tests whether a connection attempt is authorized between
two services. This is the primary API that must be implemented by
[proxies](/docs/connect/proxies.html) or
[native integrations](/docs/connect/native.html)
that wish to integrate with Connect. Prior to calling this API, it is expected
that the client TLS certificate has been properly verified against the
current CA roots.
The implementation of this API uses locally cached data
and doesn't require any request forwarding to a server. Therefore, the
response typically occurs in microseconds to impose minimal overhead on the
connection attempt.
| Method | Path | Produces |
| ------ | ---------------------------- | -------------------------- |
| `POST` | `/agent/connect/authorize` | `application/json` |
The table below shows this endpoint's support for
[blocking queries](/api/features/blocking.html),
[consistency modes](/api/features/consistency.html),
[agent caching](/api/features/caching.html), and
[required ACLs](/api/index.html#authentication).
| Blocking Queries | Consistency Modes | Agent Caching | ACL Required |
| ---------------- | ----------------- | -------------------- | --------------- |
| `NO` | `none` | `background refresh` | `service:write` |
### Parameters
- `Target` `(string: <required>)` - The name of the service that is being
requested.
- `ClientCertURI` `(string: <required>)` - The unique identifier for the
requesting client. This is currently the URI SAN from the TLS client
certificate.
- `ClientCertSerial` `(string: <required>)` - The colon-hex-encoded serial
number for the requesting client cert. This is used to check against
revocation lists.
- `Namespace` `(string: "")` - **(Enterprise Only)** Specifies the namespace of
the target service. If not provided in the JSON body, the value of
the `ns` URL query parameter or in the `X-Consul-Namespace` header will be used.
If not provided at all, the namespace will be inherited from the request's ACL
token or will default to the `default` namespace. Added in Consul 1.7.0.
### Sample Payload
```json
{
"Target": "db",
"ClientCertURI": "spiffe://dc1-7e567ac2-551d-463f-8497-f78972856fc1.consul/ns/default/dc/dc1/svc/web",
"ClientCertSerial": "04:00:00:00:00:01:15:4b:5a:c3:94"
}
```
### Sample Request
```text
$ curl \
--request POST \
--data @payload.json \
http://127.0.0.1:8500/v1/agent/connect/authorize
```
### Sample Response
```json
{
"Authorized": true,
"Reason": "Matched intention: web => db (allow)"
}
```
## Certificate Authority (CA) Roots
This endpoint returns the trusted certificate authority (CA) root certificates.
This is used by [proxies](/docs/connect/proxies.html) or
[native integrations](/docs/connect/native.html) to verify served client
or server certificates are valid.
This is equivalent to the [non-Agent Connect endpoint](/api/connect.html),
but the response of this request is cached locally at the agent. This allows
for very fast response times and for fail open behavior if the server is
unavailable. This endpoint should be used by proxies and native integrations.
| Method | Path | Produces |

## Service Leaf Certificate
This endpoint returns the leaf certificate representing a single service.
This certificate is used as a server certificate for accepting inbound
connections and is also used as the client certificate for establishing
outbound connections to other services.
The agent generates a CSR locally and calls the
[CA sign API](/api/connect/ca.html) to sign it. The resulting certificate
is cached and returned by this API until it is near expiry or the root
certificates change.
This API supports blocking queries. The blocking query will block until
a new certificate is necessary because the existing certificate will expire
or the root certificate is being rotated. This blocking behavior allows
clients to efficiently wait for certificate rotations.
| Method | Path | Produces |
| ------ | ---------------------------- | -------------------------- |
| `GET` | `/agent/connect/ca/leaf/:service` | `application/json` |
The table below shows this endpoint's support for
[blocking queries](/api/features/blocking.html),
[consistency modes](/api/features/consistency.html),
[agent caching](/api/features/caching.html), and
[required ACLs](/api/index.html#authentication).
| Blocking Queries | Consistency Modes | Agent Caching | ACL Required |
| ---------------- | ----------------- | -------------------- | --------------- |
| `YES` | `all` | `background refresh` | `service:write` |
### Parameters
- `Service` `(string: <required>)` - The name of the service for the leaf
certificate. This is specified in the URL. The service does not need to
exist in the catalog, but the proper ACL permissions must be available.
