The prior solution to call reply.Reset() aged poorly since newer fields
were added to the reply, but not added to Reset() leading serial
blocking query loops on the server to blend replies.
This could manifest as a service-defaults protocol change from
default=>http not reverting back to default after the config entry
reponsible was deleted.
Backport of #10239 to 1.9.x
When de-registering in anti-entropy sync, when there is no service or
check token.
The agent token will fall back to the default (aka user) token if no agent
token is set, so the existing behaviour still works, but it will prefer
the agent token over the user token if both are set.

The agent token seems more approrpiate in this case, since this is an
"internal operation", not something initiated by the user.
Previous to this commit, the API response would include Gateway
Addresses in the form `domain.name.:8080`, which due to the addition of
the port is probably not the expected response.
This commit rightTrims any `.` characters from the end of the domain
before formatting the address to include the port resulting in
`domain.name:8080`
This way we only have to wait for the serf barrier to pass once before
we can make use of federation state APIs Without this patch every
restart needs to re-compute the change.
In a situation where the mesh gateway is configured to bind to multiple
network interfaces, we use a feature called 'tagged addresses'.
Sometimes an address is duplicated across multiple tags such as 'lan'
and 'lan_ipv4'.
There is code to deduplicate these things when creating envoy listeners,
but that code doesn't ensure that the same tag wins every time. If the
winning tag flaps between xDS discovery requests it will cause the
listener to be drained and replaced.

After fixing that bug I uncovered a couple more:
Fix an issue where we might try to cross sign a cert when we never had a valid root.
Fix a potential issue where reconfiguring the CA could cause either the Vault or AWS PCA CA providers to delete resources that are still required by the new incarnation of the CA.
Ensure that CA initialization does not block leader election.

Nodes themselves are not namespaced, so we'd originally assumed we did not need to pass through the ns query parameter when listing or viewing nodes.
As it turns out the API endpoints we use to list and view nodes (and related things) return things that are namespaced, therefore any API requests for nodes do require a the ns query parameter to be passed through to the request.
This PR adds the necessary ns query param to all things Node, apart from the querying for the leader which only returns node related information.
Previously the tokens would fail to insert into the secondary's state
store because the AuthMethod field of the ACLToken did not point to a
known auth method from the primary.
Backport of #9351 to 1.8.x
A vulnerability was identified in Consul and Consul Enterprise (“Consul”) such that operators with `operator:read` ACL permissions are able to read the Consul Connect CA configuration when explicitly configured with the `/v1/connect/ca/configuration` endpoint, including the private key. This allows the user to effectively privilege escalate by enabling the ability to mint certificates for any Consul Connect services. This would potentially allow them to masquerade (receive/send traffic) as any service in the mesh.

This PR increases the permissions required to read the Connect CA's private key when it was configured via the `/connect/ca/configuration` endpoint. They are now `operator:write`.
The Catalog, Config Entry, KV and Session resources potentially re-validate the input as its coming in. We need to prevent snapshot restoration failures due to missing namespaces or namespaces that are being deleted in enterprise.
Previously config entries sharing a kind & name but in different
namespaces could occasionally cause "stuck states" in replication
because the namespace fields were ignored during the differential
comparison phase.
Example:
Two config entries written to the primary:
kind=A,name=web,namespace=bar
kind=A,name=web,namespace=foo
Under the covers these both get saved to memdb, so they are sorted by
all 3 components (kind,name,namespace) during natural iteration. This
means that before the replication code does it's own incomplete sort,
the underlying data IS sorted by namespace ascending (bar comes before
foo).
After one pass of replication the primary and secondary datacenters have
the same set of config entries present. If
"kind=A,name=web,namespace=bar" were to be deleted, then things get
weird. Before replication the two sides look like:
primary: [
kind=A,name=web,namespace=foo
]
secondary: [
kind=A,name=web,namespace=bar
kind=A,name=web,namespace=foo
]
The differential comparison phase walks these two lists in sorted order
and first compares "kind=A,name=web,namespace=foo" vs
"kind=A,name=web,namespace=bar" and falsely determines they are the SAME
and are thus cause an update of "kind=A,name=web,namespace=foo". Then it
compares "<nothing>" with "kind=A,name=web,namespace=foo" and falsely
determines that the latter should be DELETED.
During reconciliation the deletes are processed before updates, and so
for a brief moment in the secondary "kind=A,name=web,namespace=foo" is
erroneously deleted and then immediately restored.
Unfortunately after this replication phase the final state is identical
to the initial state, so when it loops around again (rate limited) it
repeats the same set of operations indefinitely.
