Since 4695d118dd (#1209), RDMA supports builtin.
And module connection type may be removed in future. So run a builtin
RDMA support for CI workflow.
RDMA module is complied only in CI, keep it building check only until
module connection type gets obsolete.

There are several patches in this PR:
* Abstract set/rewrite config bind option: `bind` option is a special
config, `socket` and `tls` are using the same one. However RDMA uses the
similar style but different one. Use a bit abstract work to make it
flexible for both `socket` and `RDMA`. (Even for QUIC in the future.)
* Introduce closeListener for connection type: closing socket by a
simple syscall would be fine, RDMA has complex logic. Introduce
connection type specific close listener method.
* RDMA: Use valkey.conf style instead of module parameters: use
`--rdma-bind` and `--rdma-port` style instead of module parameters. The
module style config `rdma.bind` and `rdma.port` are removed.
* RDMA: Support builtin: support `make BUILD_RDMA=yes`. module style is
still kept for now.

Since a7cbca40661 ("RDMA: Support .is_local method (#1089)"),
valkey-server started to support auto-detect local connection, then we
can use protected mode for local RDMA device for test.

Adds an option to build RDMA support as a module:
make BUILD_RDMA=module
To start valkey-server with RDMA, use a command line like the following:
./src/valkey-server --loadmodule src/valkey-rdma.so \
port=6379 bind=xx.xx.xx.xx
* Implement server side of connection module only, this means we can
*NOT*
compile RDMA support as built-in.
* Add necessary information in README.md
* Support 'CONFIG SET/GET', for example, 'CONFIG Set rdma.port 6380',
then
check this by 'rdma res show cm_id' and valkey-cli (with RDMA support,
but not implemented in this patch).
* The full listeners show like:
listener0:name=tcp,bind=*,bind=-::*,port=6379
listener1:name=unix,bind=/var/run/valkey.sock
listener2:name=rdma,bind=xx.xx.xx.xx,bind=yy.yy.yy.yy,port=6379
listener3:name=tls,bind=*,bind=-::*,port=16379
Because the lack of RDMA support from TCL, use a simple C program to
test
Valkey Over RDMA (under tests/rdma/). This is a quite raw version with
basic
library dependence: libpthread, libibverbs, librdmacm. Run using the
script:
./runtest-rdma [ OPTIONS ]
To run RDMA in GitHub actions, a kernel module RXE for emulated soft
RDMA, needs
to be installed. The kernel module source code is fetched a repo
containing only
the RXE kernel driver from the Linux kernel, but stored in an separate
repo to
avoid cloning the whole Linux kernel repo.

Since 2021/06, I created a
[PR](https://github.com/redis/redis/pull/9161) for *Redis Over RDMA*
proposal. Then I did some work to [fully abstract connection and make
TLS dynamically loadable](https://github.com/redis/redis/pull/9320), a
new connection type could be built into Redis statically, or a separated
shared library(loaded by Redis on startup) since Redis 7.2.0.
Base on the new connection framework, I created a new
[PR](https://github.com/redis/redis/pull/11182), some
guys(@xiezhq-hermann @zhangyiming1201 @JSpewock @uvletter @FujiZ)
noticed, played and tested this PR. However, because of the lack of time
and knowledge from the maintainers, this PR has been pending about 2
years.
Related doc: [Introduce *Valkey Over RDMA*
specification](https://github.com/valkey-io/valkey-doc/pull/123). (same
as Redis, and this should be same)
Changes in this PR:
- implement *Valkey Over RDMA*. (compact the Valkey style)
Finally, if this feature is considered to merge, I volunteer to maintain
it.
