SELECT was still transmitted to slaves using the inline protocol, that
is conceived mostly for humans to type into telnet sessions, and is
notably not understood by redis-cli --slave.

Now the new protocol is used instead.

A Redis master sends PING commands to slaves from time to time: doing
this ensures that even if absence of writes, the master->slave channel
remains active and the slave can feel the master presence, instead of
closing the connection for timeout.

This commit changes the way PINGs are sent to slaves in order to use the
standard interface used to replicate all the other commands, that is,
the function replicationFeedSlaves().

With this change the stream of commands sent to every slave is exactly
the same regardless of their exact state (Transferring RDB for first
synchronization or slave already online). With the previous
implementation the PING was only sent to online slaves, with the result
that the output stream from master to slaves was not identical for all
the slaves: this is a problem if we want to implement partial resyncs in
the future using a global replication stream offset.

TL;DR: this commit should not change the behaviour in practical terms,
but is just something in preparation for partial resynchronization
support.

Before this commit every Redis slave had its own selected database ID
state. This was not actually useful as the emitted stream of commands
is identical for all the slaves.

Now the the currently selected database is a global state that is set to
-1 when a new slave is attached, in order to force the SELECT command to
be re-emitted for all the slaves.

This change is useful in order to implement replication partial
resynchronization in the future, as makes sure that the stream of
commands received by slaves, including SELECT commands, are exactly the
same for every slave connected, at any time.

In this way we could have a global offset that can identify a specific
piece of the master -> slaves stream of commands.

Otherwise we end with less reliable connections because it's too easy
that a single packet gets lost.

Further details from @antirez:

It was reported by @StopForumSpam on Twitter that the Redis replication
link was strangely using multiple TCP packets for multiple commands.
This wastes a lot of bandwidth and is due to the TCP_NODELAY option we
enable on the socket after accepting a new connection.

However the master -> slave channel is a one-way channel since Redis
replication is asynchronous, so there is no point in trying to reduce
the latency, we should aim to reduce the bandwidth. For this reason this
commit introduces the ability to disable the nagle algorithm on the
socket after a successful SYNC.

This feature is off by default because the delay can be up to 40
milliseconds with normally configured Linux kernels.

When keyspace events are enabled, the overhead is not sever but
noticeable, so this commit introduces the ability to select subclasses
of events in order to avoid to generate events the user is not
interested in.

The events can be selected using redis.conf or CONFIG SET / GET.

decrRefCount used to get its argument as a void* pointer in order to be
used as destructor where a 'void free_object(void*)' prototype is
expected. However this made simpler to introduce bugs by freeing the
wrong pointer. This commit fixes the argument type and introduces a new
wrapper called decrRefCountVoid() that can be used when the void*
argument is needed.

There was a bug in the previous version of this library that caused a
crash under the circumstances described in issue #901.

The newer version of the library appears to be fixed (I tested it
manually with valgrind and everything seems fine now).
