connect: use -dev-no-store-token for test vaults to reduce source of flakes (#15691)
It turns out that by default the dev mode vault server will attempt to interact with the
filesystem to store the provided root token. If multiple vault instances are running
they'll all awkwardly share the filesystem and if timing results in one server stopping
while another one is starting then the starting one will error with:

    Error initializing Dev mode: rename /home/circleci/.vault-token.tmp /home/circleci/.vault-token: no such file or directory

This change uses `-dev-no-store-token` to bypass that source of flakes. Also the
stdout/stderr from the vault process is included if the test fails.

The introduction of more `t.Parallel` use in https://github.com/hashicorp/consul/pull/15669
increased the likelihood of this failure, but any of the tests with multiple vaults in use
(or running multiple package tests in parallel that all use vault) were eventually going
to flake on this.

Docker Pulls Go Report Card

Consul is a distributed, highly available, and data center aware solution to connect and configure applications across dynamic, distributed infrastructure.

Consul provides several key features:

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

  • Service Mesh - Consul Service Mesh enables secure service-to-service communication with automatic TLS encryption and identity-based authorization. Applications can use sidecar proxies in a service mesh configuration to establish TLS connections for inbound and outbound connections with Transparent Proxy.

  • 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.

Consul runs on Linux, macOS, FreeBSD, Solaris, and Windows and includes an optional browser based UI. 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.
