chris trott 78df6a630e Configurable Consul Service Address (#3971)
* Consul service address is blank

Setting an explicit service address eliminates the ability for Consul
to dynamically decide what it should be based on its translate_wan_addrs
setting.

translate_wan_addrs configures Consul to return its lan address to nodes
in its same datacenter but return its wan address to nodes in foreign
datacenters.

* service_address parameter for Consul storage backend

This parameter allows users to override the use of what Vault knows to
be its HA redirect address.

This option is particularly commpelling because if set to a blank
string, Consul will leverage the node configuration where the service is
registered which includes the `translate_wan_addrs` option. This option
conditionally associates nodes' lan or wan address based on where
requests originate.

* Add TestConsul_ServiceAddress

Ensures that the service_address configuration parameter is setting the
serviceAddress field of ConsulBackend instances properly.

If the "service_address" parameter is not set, the ConsulBackend
serviceAddress field must instantiate as nil to indicate that it can be
ignored.
