Considerations for the selected imp of HRANDFIELD & HFE feature: HRANDFIELD might access any of the fields in the hash as some of them might be expired. And so the Implementation of HRANDFIELD along with HFEs might be one of the two options: 1. Expire hash-fields before diving into handling HRANDFIELD. 2. Refine HRANDFIELD cases to deal with expired fields. Regarding the first option, as reference, the command RANDOMKEY also declareson O(1) complexity, yet might be stuck on a very long (but not infinite) loop trying to find non-expired keys. Furthermore RANDOMKEY also evicts expired keys along the way even though it is categorized as a read-only command. Note that the case of HRANDFIELD is more lightweight versus RANDOMKEY since HFEs have much more effective and aggressive active-expiration for fields behind. The second option introduces additional implementation complexity to HRANDFIELD. We could further refine HRANDFIELD cases to differentiate between scenarios with many expired fields versus few expired fields, and adjust based on the percentage of expired fields. However, this approach could still lead to long loops or necessitate expiring fields before selecting them. For the “lightweight” cases it is also expected to have a lightweight expiration. Considering the pros and cons, and the fact that HRANDFIELD is an infrequent command (particularly with HFEs) and the fact we have effective active-expiration behind for hash-fields, it is better to keep it simple and choose option number 1. Other changes: * Don't mark command dirty by internal hashTypeExpire(). It causes to read only command of HRANDFIELD to be accidently propagated (This flag should be indicated at higher level, by the command functions). * Align `hashTypeExpireIfNeeded()` and `hashTypeGetValue()` to be more aligned with `expireIfNeeded()` logic of keyspace.
