Upcoming work to instrument the rate of RPC requests by consumer (and eventually
rate limit) require that we authenticate a RPC request before forwarding. Add a
new top-level `Authenticate` method to the server and have it return an
`AuthenticatedIdentity` struct. RPC handlers will use the relevant fields of
this identity for performing authorization.
This changeset includes:
* The main implementation of `Authenticate`
* Provide a new RPC `ACL.WhoAmI` for debugging authentication. This endpoint
returns the same `AuthenticatedIdentity` that will be used by RPC handlers. At
some point we might want to give this an equivalent HTTP endpoint but I didn't
want to add that to our public API until some of the other Workload Identity
work is solidified, especially if we don't need it yet.
* A full coverage test of the `Authenticate` method. This sets up two server
nodes with mTLS and ACLs, some tokens, and some allocations with workload
identities.
* Wire up an example of using `Authenticate` in the `Namespace.Upsert` RPC and
see how authorization happens after forwarding.
* A new semgrep rule for `Authenticate`, which we'll need to update once we're
ready to wire up more RPC endpoints with authorization steps.
When mTLS is enabled, only nomad servers of the region should access the
Raft RPC layer. Clients and servers in other regions should only use the
Nomad RPC endpoints.

Previously we did a validation pass over CA PEM files before calling
Go's CertPool.AppendCertsFromPEM to provide more detailed error messages
than the stdlib provides.
Unfortunately our validation was overly strict and rejected valid CA
files. This is actually the reason the stdlib PEM parser doesn't return
meaningful errors: PEM files are extremely permissive and it's difficult
to tell the difference between invalid data and valid metadata.
This PR removes our custom validation as it would reject valid data and
the extra error messages were not useful in diagnosing the error
encountered.
Not setting the host name led the Go HTTP client to expect a certificate
with a DNS-resolvable name. Since Nomad uses `${role}.${region}.nomad`
names ephemeral dir migrations were broken when TLS was enabled.
Added an e2e test to ensure this doesn't break again as it's very
difficult to test and the TLS configuration is very easy to get wrong.
* Allow server TLS configuration to be reloaded via SIGHUP
* dynamic tls reloading for nomad agents
* code cleanup and refactoring
* ensure keyloader is initialized, add comments
* allow downgrading from TLS
* initalize keyloader if necessary
* integration test for tls reload
* fix up test to assert success on reloaded TLS configuration
* failure in loading a new TLS config should remain at current
Reload only the config if agent is already using TLS
* reload agent configuration before specific server/client
lock keyloader before loading/caching a new certificate
* introduce a get-or-set method for keyloader
* fixups from code review
* fix up linting errors
* fixups from code review
* add lock for config updates; improve copy of tls config
* GetCertificate only reloads certificates dynamically for the server
* config updates/copies should be on agent
* improve http integration test
* simplify agent reloading storing a local copy of config
* reuse the same keyloader when reloading
* Test that server and client get reloaded but keep keyloader
* Keyloader exposes GetClientCertificate as well for outgoing connections
* Fix spelling
* correct changelog style
This PR fixes our vet script and fixes all the missed vet changes.
It also fixes pointers being printed in `nomad stop <job>` and `nomad
node-status <node>`.
