Fix replication of SLAVEOF inside transaction.
In Redis 4.0 replication, with the introduction of PSYNC2, masters and
slaves replicate commands to cascading slaves and to the replication
backlog itself in a different way compared to the past.
Masters actually replicate the effects of client commands.
Slaves just propagate what they receive from masters.
This mechanism can cause problems when the configuration of an instance
is changed from master to slave inside a transaction. For instance
we could send to a master instance the following sequence:
MULTI
SLAVEOF 127.0.0.1 0
EXEC
SLAVEOF NO ONE
Before the fixes in this commit, the MULTI command used to be propagated
into the replication backlog, however after the SLAVEOF command the
instance is a slave, so the EXEC implementation failed to also propagate
the EXEC command. When the slaves of the above instance reconnected,
they were incrementally synchronized just sending a "MULTI". This put
the master client (in the slaves) into MULTI st...
