Improve testing and update flags around commands without ACL keyspec flags (#10167)
This PR aims to improve the flags associated with some commands and adds various tests around
these cases. Specifically, it's concerned with commands which declare keys but have no ACL
flags (think `EXISTS`), the user needs either read or write permission to access this type of key.

This change is primarily concerned around commands in three categories:

# General keyspace commands
These commands are agnostic to the underlying data outside of side channel attacks, so they are not
marked as ACCESS.
* TOUCH
* EXISTS
* TYPE
* OBJECT 'all subcommands'

Note that TOUCH is not a write command, it could be a side effect of either a read or a write command.

# Length and cardinality commands
These commands are marked as NOT marked as ACCESS since they don't return actual user strings,
just metadata.
* LLEN
* STRLEN
* SCARD
* HSTRLEN

# Container has member commands
These commands return information about the existence or metadata about the key. These commands
are NOT marked as ACCESS since the check of membership is used widely in write commands
e.g. the response of HSET. 
* SISMEMBER
* HEXISTS

# Intersection cardinality commands
These commands are marked as ACCESS since they process data to compute the result.
* PFCOUNT
* ZCOUNT
* ZINTERCARD
* SINTERCARD

Redis Test Suite

The normal execution mode of the test suite involves starting and manipulating local redis-server instances, inspecting process state, log files, etc.

The test suite also supports execution against an external server, which is enabled using the --host and --port parameters. When executing against an external server, tests tagged external:skip are skipped.

There are additional runtime options that can further adjust the test suite to match different external server configurations:

Option Impact
--singledb Only use database 0, don't assume others are supported.
--ignore-encoding Skip all checks for specific encoding.
--ignore-digest Skip key value digest validations.
--cluster-mode Run in strict Redis Cluster compatibility mode.
--large-memory Enables tests that consume more than 100mb

Tags

Tags are applied to tests to classify them according to the subsystem they test, but also to indicate compatibility with different run modes and required capabilities.

Tags can be applied in different context levels:

  • start_server context
  • tags context that bundles several tests together
  • A single test context.

The following compatibility and capability tags are currently used:

Tag Indicates
external:skip Not compatible with external servers.
cluster:skip Not compatible with --cluster-mode.
large-memory Test that requires more than 100mb
tls:skip Not campatible with --tls.
needs:repl Uses replication and needs to be able to SYNC from server.
needs:debug Uses the DEBUG command or other debugging focused commands (like OBJECT).
needs:pfdebug Uses the PFDEBUG command.
needs:config-maxmemory Uses CONFIG SET to manipulate memory limit, eviction policies, etc.
needs:config-resetstat Uses CONFIG RESETSTAT to reset statistics.
needs:reset Uses RESET to reset client connections.
needs:save Uses SAVE to create an RDB file.

When using an external server (--host and --port), filtering using the external:skip tags is done automatically.

When using --cluster-mode, filtering using the cluster:skip tag is done automatically.

When not using --large-memory, filtering using the largemem:skip tag is done automatically.

In addition, it is possible to specify additional configuration. For example, to run tests on a server that does not permit SYNC use:

./runtest --host <host> --port <port> --tags -needs:repl
