[VOL-3860] redis client support in voltha-lib-go
redis client support has been added in this patch. There are two
types client `redis` and `redis-sentinel` to connect a redis instance.
redis-sentinel is required to be able to find the master redis
instance from a redis-sentinel process. See redis-sentinel usage
https://redis.io/topics/sentinel and
https://pkg.go.dev/github.com/go-redis/redis/v8#NewFailoverClient
for more information. If there is no need to have any failover
mechanism then the redis client type is the option to choose.
