Aestek 5647ca2bbb [Fix] Services sometimes not being synced with acl_enforce_version_8 = false (#4771)
Fixes: https://github.com/hashicorp/consul/issues/3676

This fixes a bug were registering an agent with a non-existent ACL token can prevent other 
services registered with a good token from being synced to the server when using 
`acl_enforce_version_8 = false`.

## Background

When `acl_enforce_version_8` is off the agent does not check the ACL token validity before 
storing the service in its state.
When syncing a service registered with a missing ACL token we fall into the default error 
handling case (https://github.com/hashicorp/consul/blob/master/agent/local/state.go#L1255)
and stop the sync (https://github.com/hashicorp/consul/blob/master/agent/local/state.go#L1082)
without setting its Synced property to true like in the permission denied case.
This means that the sync will always stop at the faulty service(s).
The order in which the services are synced is random since we iterate on a map. So eventually
all services with good ACL tokens will be synced, this can however take some time and is influenced 
by the cluster size, the bigger the slower because retries are less frequent.
Having a service in this state also prevent all further sync of checks as they are done after
the services.

## Changes 

This change modify the sync process to continue even if there is an error. 
This fixes the issue described above as well as making the sync more error tolerant: if the server repeatedly refuses
a service (the ACL token could have been deleted by the time the service is synced, the servers 
were upgraded to a newer version that has more strict checks on the service definition...). 
Then all services and check that can be synced will, and those that don't will be marked as errors in 
the logs instead of blocking the whole process.

Consul Build Status Join the chat at https://gitter.im/hashicorp-consul/Lobby

Consul is a tool for service discovery and configuration. Consul is distributed, highly available, and extremely scalable.

Consul provides several key features:

  • Service Discovery - Consul makes it simple for services to register themselves and to discover other services via a DNS or HTTP interface. External services such as SaaS providers can be registered as well.

  • Health Checking - Health Checking enables Consul to quickly alert operators about any issues in a cluster. The integration with service discovery prevents routing traffic to unhealthy hosts and enables service level circuit breakers.

  • Key/Value Storage - A flexible key/value store enables storing dynamic configuration, feature flagging, coordination, leader election and more. The simple HTTP API makes it easy to use anywhere.

  • Multi-Datacenter - Consul is built to be datacenter aware, and can support any number of regions without complex configuration.

  • Service Segmentation - Consul Connect enables secure service-to-service communication with automatic TLS encryption and identity-based authorization.

Consul runs on Linux, Mac OS X, FreeBSD, Solaris, and Windows. A commercial version called Consul Enterprise is also available.

Please note: We take Consul's security and our users' trust very seriously. If you believe you have found a security issue in Consul, please responsibly disclose by contacting us at security@hashicorp.com.
