Allow Pub/Sub in contexts where other commands are blocked.
Redis loading data from disk, and a Redis slave disconnected from its master with serve-stale-data disabled, are two conditions where commands are normally refused by Redis, returning an error. However there is no reason to disable Pub/Sub commands as well, given that this layer does not interact with the dataset. To allow Pub/Sub in as many contexts as possible is especially interesting now that Redis Sentinel uses Pub/Sub of a Redis master as a communication channel between Sentinels. This commit allows Pub/Sub to be used in the above two contexts where it was previously denied.
