Paul Banks 0f27ffd163 Proxy Config Manager (#4729)
* Proxy Config Manager

This component watches for local state changes on the agent and ensures that each service registered locally with Kind == connect-proxy has it's state being actively populated in the cache.

This serves two purposes:
 1. For the built-in proxy, it ensures that the state needed to accept connections is available in RAM shortly after registration and likely before the proxy actually starts accepting traffic.
 2. For (future - next PR) xDS server and other possible future proxies that require _push_ based config discovery, this provides a mechanism to subscribe and be notified about updates to a proxy instance's config including upstream service discovery results.

* Address review comments

* Better comments; Better delivery of latest snapshot for slow watchers; Embed Config

* Comment typos

* Add upstream Stringer for funsies

Consul Build Status Join the chat at https://gitter.im/hashicorp-consul/Lobby

Consul is a tool for service discovery and configuration. Consul is distributed, highly available, and extremely scalable.

Consul provides several key features:

  • Service Discovery - Consul makes it simple for services to register themselves and to discover other services via a DNS or HTTP interface. External services such as SaaS providers can be registered as well.

  • Health Checking - Health Checking enables Consul to quickly alert operators about any issues in a cluster. The integration with service discovery prevents routing traffic to unhealthy hosts and enables service level circuit breakers.

  • Key/Value Storage - A flexible key/value store enables storing dynamic configuration, feature flagging, coordination, leader election and more. The simple HTTP API makes it easy to use anywhere.

  • Multi-Datacenter - Consul is built to be datacenter aware, and can support any number of regions without complex configuration.

  • Service Segmentation - Consul Connect enables secure service-to-service communication with automatic TLS encryption and identity-based authorization.

Consul runs on Linux, Mac OS X, FreeBSD, Solaris, and Windows. A commercial version called Consul Enterprise is also available.

Please note: We take Consul's security and our users' trust very seriously. If you believe you have found a security issue in Consul, please responsibly disclose by contacting us at security@hashicorp.com.
