Latest redis interoduces a block form of multi / pipelined, this was incorrectly
passed through and not namespaced.
Fix also updates logster, we held off on upgrading it due to missing functions
Accounting for fractional seconds, a distributed mutex can be held for
almost a full second longer than its validity.
For example: if we grab the lock at 10.5 seconds passed the epoch with a
validity of 5 seconds, the lock would be released at 16 seconds passed
the epoch. However, in this case assuming that all other processing
takes a negligible amount of time, the key would be expired at 15.5
seconds passed the epoch.
Using expireat, the key is now expired exactly when the lock is released.
Threadsafety
Since we use the same redis connection in multiple threads, a rogue
transaction in another thread can trample the connection state
(watched keys) that we need to acquire and release the lock properly.
This is fixed by preventing other threads from using the connection
when we are performing these actions.
Off-by-one error
A distributed mutex is now consistently determined to be expired if
the current time is strictly greater than the expire time.
Unwatch before transaction
Since the redis connection is used by so much of the code, it is
difficult to ensure that any watched keys have been cleared. In order
to defend against this rogue connection state, an unwatch has been
added before locking and unlocking.
Logging
Hopefully this log message is more clear.
Previously we would only hold the post process mutex for 1 minute, that is
not enough when processing a post with lots of images. This raises the bar
to 10 minutes.
It also cleans up error reporting around distributed mutexes expiring. We
used to double report.
This reduces chances of errors where consumers of strings mutate inputs
and reduces memory usage of the app.
Test suite passes now, but there may be some stuff left, so we will run
a few sites on a branch prior to merging
If we detect redis is in readonly we can not correctly get a mutex
raise an exception to notify caller
When getting optimized images avoid the distributed mutex unless
for some reason it is the first call and we need to generate a thumb
In redis readonly no thumbnails will be generated
