Extend encrypted secrets support to Redis

Balasankar 'Balu' C requested to merge support-secret-file-for-redis-config into master

What does this MR do and why?

Extend encrypted secrets support to Redis. Related to omnibus-gitlab#6275 (closed). Follows suite of !45712 (merged) and !108279 (merged)

Testing

  1. Deploy a Redis instance which requires a password to connect.

  2. Configure resque.yml to use this Redis instance, but don't specify a password in there. See that GitLab fails to connect to Redis.

  3. Run rake gitlab:redis:secret:edit and add the following content

    password: '<your-redis-password>'

  4. Restart GitLab and see that it can now connect to Redis.
