Zev Benjamin 631783f3cd [manual] Use dedicated Redis server for staging
Before we deploy this commit, we must migrate the data from the staging redis
server to the new, dedicated redis server.  The steps for doing so are the
following:

* Remove the zulip::redis puppet class from staging's zulip.conf
* ssh once from staging to redis-staging.zulip.net so that the host key is known
* Create a tunnel from redis0.zulip.net to staging.zulip.net
  * zulip@redis0:~$ ssh -N -L 127.0.0.1:6380:127.0.0.1:6379 -o ServerAliveInterval=30 -o ServerAliveCountMax=3 staging.zulip.net
* Set the redis instance on redis0.zulip.net to replicate the one on staging.zulip.net
  * redis 127.0.0.1:6379> slaveof 127.0.0.1 6380
* Stop the app on staging
* Stop redis-server on staging
* Promote the redis server on redis0.zulip.net to a master
  * redis 127.0.0.1:6379> slaveof no one
* Do a puppet apply at this commit on staging (this will bring up the tunnel to redis0)
* Deploy this commit to staging (start the app on staging)
* Kill the tunnel from redis0.zulip.net to staging.zulip.net
* Uninstall redis-server on staging

The steps for migrating prod will be the same modulo s/staging/prod0/.
