Task lifecycle restart (#14127)
* allocrunner: handle lifecycle when all tasks die

When all tasks die the Coordinator must transition to its terminal
state, coordinatorStatePoststop, to unblock poststop tasks. Since this
could happen at any time (for example, a prestart task dies), all states
must be able to transition to this terminal state.

* allocrunner: implement different alloc restarts

Add a new alloc restart mode where all tasks are restarted, even if they
have already exited. Also unifies the alloc restart logic to use the
implementation that restarts tasks concurrently and ignores
ErrTaskNotRunning errors since those are expected when restarting the
allocation.

* allocrunner: allow tasks to run again

Prevent the task runner Run() method from exiting to allow a dead task
to run again. When the task runner is signaled to restart, the function
will jump back to the MAIN loop and run it again.

The task runner determines if a task needs to run again based on two new
task events that were added to differentiate between a request to
restart a specific task, the tasks that are currently running, or all
tasks that have already run.

* api/cli: add support for all tasks alloc restart

Implement the new -all-tasks alloc restart CLI flag and its API
counterpar, AllTasks. The client endpoint calls the appropriate restart
method from the allocrunner depending on the restart parameters used.

* test: fix tasklifecycle Coordinator test

* allocrunner: kill taskrunners if all tasks are dead

When all non-poststop tasks are dead we need to kill the taskrunners so
we don't leak their goroutines, which are blocked in the alloc restart
loop. This also ensures the allocrunner exits on its own.

* taskrunner: fix tests that waited on WaitCh

Now that "dead" tasks may run again, the taskrunner Run() method will
not return when the task finishes running, so tests must wait for the
task state to be "dead" instead of using the WaitCh, since it won't be
closed until the taskrunner is killed.

* tests: add tests for all tasks alloc restart

* changelog: add entry for #14127

* taskrunner: fix restore logic.

The first implementation of the task runner restore process relied on
server data (`tr.Alloc().TerminalStatus()`) which may not be available
to the client at the time of restore.

It also had the incorrect code path. When restoring a dead task the
driver handle always needs to be clear cleanly using `clearDriverHandle`
otherwise, after exiting the MAIN loop, the task may be killed by
`tr.handleKill`.

The fix is to store the state of the Run() loop in the task runner local
client state: if the task runner ever exits this loop cleanly (not with
a shutdown) it will never be able to run again. So if the Run() loops
starts with this local state flag set, it must exit early.

This local state flag is also being checked on task restart requests. If
the task is "dead" and its Run() loop is not active it will never be
able to run again.

* address code review requests

* apply more code review changes

* taskrunner: add different Restart modes

Using the task event to differentiate between the allocrunner restart
methods proved to be confusing for developers to understand how it all
worked.

So instead of relying on the event type, this commit separated the logic
of restarting an taskRunner into two methods:
- `Restart` will retain the current behaviour and only will only restart
  the task if it's currently running.
- `ForceRestart` is the new method where a `dead` task is allowed to
  restart if its `Run()` method is still active. Callers will need to
  restart the allocRunner taskCoordinator to make sure it will allow the
  task to run again.

* minor fixes

# Allocations HTTP API
The `/allocation` endpoints are used to query for and interact with allocations.
## List Allocations
This endpoint lists all allocations.
| Method | Path | Produces |
| ------ | ----------------- | ------------------ |
| `GET` | `/v1/allocations` | `application/json` |
The table below shows this endpoint's support for
[blocking queries](/api-docs#blocking-queries) and
[required ACLs](/api-docs#acls).
| Blocking Queries | ACL Required |
| ---------------- | -------------------- |
| `YES` | `namespace:read-job` |
### Parameters
- `prefix` `(string: "")`- Specifies a string to filter allocations based on an
ID prefix. Because the value is decoded to bytes, the prefix must have an
even number of hexadecimal characters (0-9a-f). This is specified as a query
string parameter.
- `next_token` `(string: "")` - This endpoint supports paging. The `next_token`
parameter accepts a string which identifies the next expected allocation.
This value can be obtained from the `X-Nomad-NextToken` header from the
previous response.
- `per_page` `(int: 0)` - Specifies a maximum number of allocations to return
for this request. If omitted, the response is not paginated. The value of the
`X-Nomad-NextToken` header of the last response can be used as the
`next_token` of the next request to fetch additional pages.
- `filter` `(string: "")` - Specifies the [expression](/api-docs#filtering)
used to filter the results. Consider using pagination or a query parameter to
reduce resource used to serve the request.
- `namespace` `(string: "default")` - Specifies the namespace to search. Specifying
`*` would return all allocations across all the authorized namespaces.
- `resources` `(bool: false)` - Specifies whether or not to include the
`AllocatedResources` field in the response.
- `task_states` `(bool: true)` - Specifies whether or not to include the
`TaskStates` field in the response. TaskStates are included by default but
can represent a large percentage of the overall response size. Clusters with
a large number of allocations may set `task_states=false` to significantly
reduce the size of the response.
- `reverse` `(bool: false)` - Specifies the list of returned allocations should
be sorted in the reverse order. By default allocations are returned sorted in
chronological order (older evaluations first), or in lexicographical order by
their ID if the `prefix` query parameter is used.

#### Field Reference
- `Job` - A copy of the job at the time that the allocation is created or
updated. This is primarily intended for use by the Nomad client when running
the allocation, and it may include stale information on some job fields.
Up-to-date information about the job status is available from the
[jobs API](/api-docs/jobs); take care to fetch the version of the job
associated with this allocation.
- `TaskStates` - A map of tasks to their current state and the latest events
that have effected the state. `TaskState` objects contain the following
fields:
- `State`: The task's current state. It can have one of the following
values:
- `TaskStatePending` - The task is waiting to be run, either for the first
time or due to a restart.
- `TaskStateRunning` - The task is currently running.
- `TaskStateDead` - The task is dead and will not run again.
- `StartedAt`: The time the task was last started at. Can be updated through
restarts.
- `FinishedAt`: The time the task was finished at.
- `LastRestart`: The last time the task was restarted.
- `Restarts`: The number of times the task has restarted.
- `Events` - An event contains metadata about the event. The latest 10 events
are stored per task. Each event is timestamped (Unix nanoseconds) and has one
of the following types:
- `Setup Failure` - The task could not be started because there was a
failure setting up the task prior to it running.
- `Driver Failure` - The task could not be started due to a failure in the
driver.
- `Started` - The task was started; either for the first time or due to a
restart.
- `Terminated` - The task was started and exited.
- `Killing` - The task has been sent the kill signal.
- `Killed` - The task was killed by a user.
- `Received` - The task has been pulled by the client at the given timestamp.
- `Failed Validation` - The task was invalid and as such it didn't run.
- `Restarting` - The task terminated and is being restarted.
- `Not Restarting` - the task has failed and is not being restarted because
it has exceeded its restart policy.
- `Downloading Artifacts` - The task is downloading the artifact(s)
- specified in the task.
- `Failed Artifact Download` - Artifact(s) specified in the task failed to
download.
- `Restart Signaled` - The task was signaled to be restarted.
- `Signaling` - The task was is being sent a signal.
- `Sibling Task Failed` - A task in the same task group failed.
- `Leader Task Dead` - The group's leader task is dead.
- `Driver` - A message from the driver.
- `Task Setup` - Task setup messages.
- `Building Task Directory` - Task is building its file system.
Depending on the type the event will have applicable annotations.

# sending stdin data
{"stdin": {"data": "...base64 encoded string of bytes ..."}}
# indicating stdin is closed
{"stdin": {"close": true}}
# indicating that TTY was resized
{"tty_size": {"height": <characters>, "width": <characters>}}
# basic application-level heartbeat
{}
```
### Response Frames
Response frames represent `stdout` and `stderr` output from the command as well as exit codes:
```
# transferring stdout data
{"stdout": {"data": "...base64 encoded string of bytes ..."}}
# signaling that host closed stdout
{"stdout": {"close": true}}
# transferring stderr data
{"stderr": {"data": "...base64 encoded string of bytes ..."}}
# signaling that host closed stderr
{"stderr": {"close": true}}
# signaling process exited
{"exited": true, "result": {"exit_code": <exit_code_int>}}
# basic application-level heartbeat
{}
```
### Sample Request and Response
Request and response frames encompass the full range of terminal emulator inputs and outputs, including the control characters necessary to render interactive applications. The example response includes instances of the ANSI “control sequence introducer” (CSI), which is ASCII code 27 followed by `[`.
```
# \x12: form feed, to clear terminal
{"stdin":{"data":"DA=="}}
# "\x1b[H\x1b[2J$ ":
# CSI-H (move cursor to top left corner), CSI-2J (clear entire screen), print "$ "
{"stdout":{"data":"G1tIG1sySiQg"}}
```
