Replication backlog and replicas use one global shared replication buffer (#9166)
## Background For redis master, one replica uses one copy of replication buffer, that is a big waste of memory, more replicas more waste, and allocate/free memory for every reply list also cost much. If we set client-output-buffer-limit small and write traffic is heavy, master may disconnect with replicas and can't finish synchronization with replica. If we set client-output-buffer-limit big, master may be OOM when there are many replicas that separately keep much memory. Because replication buffers of different replica client are the same, one simple idea is that all replicas only use one replication buffer, that will effectively save memory. Since replication backlog content is the same as replicas' output buffer, now we can discard replication backlog memory and use global shared replication buffer to implement replication backlog mechanism. ## Implementation I create one global "replication buffer" which...
