Vault Enterprise replication

# `/sys/replication`
~> **Enterprise Only**  These endpoints require Vault Enterprise.
## Attempt Recovery
This endpoint attempts recovery if replication is in an adverse state. For
example: an error has caused replication to stop syncing.
| Method | Path |
| :----- | :------------------------- |
| `POST` | `/sys/replication/recover` |
### Sample Request
```
$ curl \
--header "X-Vault-Token: ..." \
--request POST \
http://127.0.0.1:8200/v1/sys/replication/recover
```
### Sample Response
```json
{
"warnings": ["..."]
}
```
## Reindex Replication
This endpoint reindexes the local data storage. This can cause a very long delay
depending on the number and size of objects in the data store.
**This endpoint requires 'sudo' capability.**
| Method | Path |
| :----- | :------------------------- |
| `POST` | `/sys/replication/reindex` |
### Parameters
- `diff` `(bool: false)` Enables a slower re-indexing which will perform a key
level check to diagnose issues. Defaults false.
- `force` `(bool: false)` Forces a complete re-indexing which only scans data
available in the storage. Defaults false.
- `skip_flush` `(bool: false)` Skips the tree flushing stage of the reindex
process. This setting can be used to reduce the amount of time the tree is locked
during a reindex process. If this node is killed before the full tree has been
asynchronously flushed the reindex may not have applied fully and a new reindex
may need to be done. Shutting down this node cleanly will cause the tree to be
flushed prior to shutdown. Defaults false.
### Sample Payload
```json
{}
```
### Sample Request
```
$ curl \
--header "X-Vault-Token: ..." \
--request POST \
http://127.0.0.1:8200/v1/sys/replication/reindex
```
### Sample Response
```json
{
"warnings": ["..."]
}
```
## Check Status
This endpoint print information about the status of replication (mode,
sync progress, etc).
This is an authenticated endpoint.
| Method | Path |
| :----- | :------------------------ |
| `GET` | `/sys/replication/status` |
### Sample Request
```
$ curl \
http://127.0.0.1:8200/v1/sys/replication/status
```
### Sample Response
The printed status of the replication environment. As an example, for a
performance primary and DR primary node, it will look something like:
```json
{
"data": {
"dr": {
"cluster_id": "f2c21cb5-523f-617b-20ac-c913d9154ba6",
"known_secondaries": ["3"],
"last_wal": 291,
"merkle_root": "38543b95d44132138003939addbaf94125ec184e",
"mode": "primary",
"primary_cluster_addr": ""
},
"performance": {
"cluster_id": "1598d434-dfec-1f48-f019-3d22a8075bf9",

"merkle_root": "43f40fc775b40cc76cd5d7e289b2e6eaf4ba138c",
"mode": "primary",
"primary_cluster_addr": ""
}
}
}
```
### Sample Response from Performance Secondary & DR Primary
The printed status of the replication environment. As an example, for a
performnace secondary and DR primary node, it will look something like:
```json
{
"data": {
"dr": {
"cluster_id": "e4bfa800-002e-7b6d-14c2-617855ece02f",
