# Background
The main goal of this PR is to remove relevant logics on Lua script verbatim replication,
only keeping effects replication logic, which has been set as default since Redis 5.0.
As a result, Lua in Redis 7.0 would be acting the same as Redis 6.0 with default
configuration from users' point of view.
There are lots of reasons to remove verbatim replication.
Antirez has listed some of the benefits in Issue #5292:
>1. No longer need to explain to users side effects into scripts.
They can do whatever they want.
>2. No need for a cache about scripts that we sent or not to the slaves.
>3. No need to sort the output of certain commands inside scripts
(SMEMBERS and others): this both simplifies and gains speed.
>4. No need to store scripts inside the RDB file in order to startup correctly.
>5. No problems about evicting keys during the script execution.
When looking back at Redis 5.0, antirez and core team decided to set the config
`lua-replicate-commands yes` by default instead of removing verbatim replication
directly, in case some bad situations happened. 3 years later now before Redis 7.0,
it's time to remove it formally.
# Changes
- configuration for lua-replicate-commands removed
- created config file stub for backward compatibility
- Replication script cache removed
- this is useless under script effects replication
- relevant statistics also removed
- script persistence in RDB files is also removed
- Propagation of SCRIPT LOAD and SCRIPT FLUSH to replica / AOF removed
- Deterministic execution logic in scripts removed (i.e. don't run write commands
after random ones, and sorting output of commands with random order)
- the flags indicating which commands have non-deterministic results are kept as hints to clients.
- `redis.replicate_commands()` & `redis.set_repl()` changed
- now `redis.replicate_commands()` does nothing and return an 1
- ...and then `redis.set_repl()` can be issued before `redis.replicate_commands()` now
- Relevant TCL cases adjusted
- DEBUG lua-always-replicate-commands removed
# Other changes
- Fix a recent bug comparing CLIENT_ID_AOF to original_client->flags instead of id. (introduced in #9780)

Redis function unit is located inside functions.c
and contains Redis Function implementation:
1. FUNCTION commands:
* FUNCTION CREATE
* FCALL
* FCALL_RO
* FUNCTION DELETE
* FUNCTION KILL
* FUNCTION INFO
2. Register engine
In addition, this commit introduce the first engine
that uses the Redis Function capabilities, the
Lua engine.
The functionality was moved to script_lua.c under
callFunction function. Its purpose is to call the Lua
function already located on the top of the Lua stack.
Used the new function on eval.c to invoke Lua code.
The function will also be used to invoke Lua
code on the Lua engine.
Script unit is a new unit located on script.c.
Its purpose is to provides an API for functions (and eval)
to interact with Redis. Interaction includes mostly
executing commands, but also functionalities like calling
Redis back on long scripts or check if the script was killed.
The interaction is done using a scriptRunCtx object that
need to be created by the user and initialized using scriptPrepareForRun.
Detailed list of functionalities expose by the unit:
1. Calling commands (including all the validation checks such as
acl, cluster, read only run, ...)
2. Set Resp
3. Set Replication method (AOF/REPLICATION/NONE)
4. Call Redis back to on long running scripts to allow Redis reply
to clients and perform script kill
The commit introduce the new unit and uses it on eval commands to
interact with Redis.
The following variable was renamed:
1. lua_caller -> script_caller
2. lua_time_limit -> script_time_limit
3. lua_timedout -> script_timedout
4. lua_oom -> script_oom
5. lua_disable_deny_script -> script_disable_deny_script
6. in_eval -> in_script
The following variables was moved to lctx under eval.c
1. lua
2. lua_client
3. lua_cur_script
4. lua_scripts
5. lua_scripts_mem
6. lua_replicate_commands
7. lua_write_dirty
8. lua_random_dirty
9. lua_multi_emitted
10. lua_repl
11. lua_kill
12. lua_time_start
13. lua_time_snapshot
This commit is in a low risk of introducing any issues and it
is just moving varibales around and not changing any logic.
This commit is only move code around without changing it.
The reason behind this is to make review process easier
by allowing the reviewer to simply ignore all code movements.
changes:
1. rename scripting.c to eval.c
2. introduce and new file, script_lua.c, and move parts of Lua
functionality to this new file. script_lua.c will eventually
contains the shared code between legacy lua and lua engine.
This commit does not compiled on purpose. Its only purpose is to move
code and rename files.
