Here we introduce a change in the way we convert values from Lua to
Redis when RESP3 is selected: this is possible without breaking the fact
we can return directly what a command returned, because there is no
Redis command in RESP2 that returns true or false to Lua, so the
conversion in the case of RESP2 is totally arbitrary. When a script is
written selecting RESP3 from Lua, it totally makes sense to change such
behavior and return RESP3 true/false when Lua true/false is returned.

We want all the scripts to run in RESP2 mode by default. It's up to the
caller to switch to V3 using redis.setresp() if it is really needed.
This way most scripts written for past Redis versions will continue to
work with Redis >= 6 even if the client is in RESP3 mode.

Note that this breaks API compatibility with Redis < 6:
CONFIG GET requirepass
Will no longer return a cleartext password as well, but the SHA256 hash
of the password set.
