--stat mode already used to reconnect automatically if the server is no
longer available. This is useful since this is an interactive mode used
for debugging, however the same applies to --latency and --latency-dist
modes, so now both use the reconnecting command execution as well.

The reconnection code was modified to use basic VT100 escape sequences
in order to play better with different kinds of output on the screen
when the reconnection happens, and to hide the reconnection attempt
output when finally the reconnection happens.

So far not able to find a color palette within the 256 colors which is
not confusing. However I believe it is a possible task, so will try
better later.

Still not happy with the result but low grays are hard to see in certain
monitors with a non perfect gamma.

This test on Linux was extremely slow, since in Tcl we can't enable
easily tcp-nodelay, so the busy loop used to take *a lot* with bigger
writes. Fixed using pipelining.

Code was adding '\n'  (line 521) to the end of NIL values exlusively making csv output inconsistent.  Removed '\n'

Rationale is that when re-entering, it is likely due to Lua debugging
hooks. Returning an error will be ignored in most cases, going totally
unnoticed. With the log at least we leave a trace.

Instead of calling redisPanic() to abort the server.

Related to issue #2302.

The cleanup code expects that if 'di' is not NULL, it is a valid
iterator that should be freed.

The result of this bug was a crash of the AOF rewriting process if an
error occurred after the DBs data are written and the iterator is no
longer valid.

This fix is from @NanXiao, however I was not able to retain authorship
because the Pull Request original repository was removed.

1. Server unxtime may remain not updated while loading AOF, so ETA is
not updated correctly.

2. Number of processed byte was not initialized.

3. Possible division by zero condition (likely cause of issue #1932).

Fixes issue #2225.

Otherwise there are security risks, especially when providing Redis as a
service, the user may "sniff" for admin commands renamed to an
unguessable string via rename-command in redis.conf.

The old list did not made much sense... and the flag is currently not
used at all, so no side effects.

Adds a symlink for redis-sentinel when Make install

It fixes a bad bug that crashes the server in certain conditions
as shown in issue #2210.

Related to #2094.

People mostly use SORT against lists, but our prior
behavior was pretending lists were an unordered bag
requiring a forced-sort when no sort was requested.

We can just use the native list ordering to ensure
consistency across replicaion and scripting calls.

Closes #2079
Closes #545 (again)

status command currently reports success when redis has crashed and the pid file still exists. Changing to check the actual process is running.

Improved getting pid
