This new field counts all the times Redis is configured with AOF enabled and
fsync policy 'everysec', but the previous fsync performed by the
background thread was not able to complete within two seconds, forcing
Redis to perform a write against the AOF file while the fsync is still
in progress (likely a blocking operation).

Apparently because the sample RDB file was not copied before every test
Redis had a chance to replace it with a newly written one, so that the
next test could fail.

When running the test in valgrind mode, pass the right flags to show memory leaks stack traces but only including the "definitely lost" items.

Result of INCRBYFLOAT and HINCRBYFLOAT should never be in exponential form, and also should never contain trailing zeroes. This is not possible with vanilla printf() format specifiers, so we alter the output.

DEBUG should not be flagged as w otherwise we can not call DEBUG DIGEST and other commands against read only slaves.

This commit introduces support for read only slaves via redis.conf and CONFIG GET/SET commands. Also various semantical fixes are implemented here:

1) MULTI/EXEC with only read commands now work where the server is into a state where writes (or commands increasing memory usage) are not allowed. Before this patch everything inside a transaction would fail in this conditions.

2) Scripts just calling read-only commands will work against read only
slaves, when the server is out of memory, or when persistence is into an
error condition. Before the patch EVAL always failed in this condition.

More memory tests implemented. Default number of iterations lowered to a more acceptable value of 50.

Number of iteration of --test-memory is now 300 (several minutes per gigabyte). Memtest86 and Memtester links are also displayed while running the test.

Use a simple protocol between clientsCron() and helper functions to
understand if the client is still valind and clientsCron() should
continue processing or if the client was freed and we should continue
with the next one.

The new function is used in order to resize the string allocation so
that only the minimal allocation possible is used, removing all the free
space at the end of the string normally used to improve efficiency of
concatenation operations.
