tls: Add distributed_stek module
This migrates a feature that was previously reserved for enterprise
users, according to https://github.com/caddyserver/caddy/issues/2786.

TLS session ticket keys are sensitive, so they should be rotated on a
regular basis. Only Caddy does this by default. However, a cluster of
servers that rotate keys without synchronization will lose the benefits
of having sessions in the first place if the client is routed to a
different backend. This module coordinates STEK rotation in a fleet so
the same keys are used, and rotated, across the whole cluster. No other
server does this, but Twitter wrote about how they hacked together a
solution a few years ago:

// Package distributedstek provides TLS session ticket ephemeral
// keys (STEKs) in a distributed fashion by utilizing configured
// storage for locking and key sharing. This allows a cluster of
// machines to optimally resume TLS sessions in a load-balanced
// environment without any hassle. This is similar to what
// Twitter does, but without needing to rely on SSH, as it is
// built into the web server this way:
