plugin/ready: fix starts and restarts (#2814)
Add OnRestartFailed to the ready plugin and some various cleanups.

Document slightly better how things are supposed to work with multiple
`ready`'s in the multiple Server Blocks.

All manually tested with this Corefile:
~~~
. {
    log
    ready
}

example.org {
    log
    chaos
    ready
}
~~~
And then `kill -SIGUSR1` and curling the ready endpoint. This works
well, the FailedReload is triggered by adding a syntax error in the
Corefile.

See #2659

ready

Name

ready - enables a readiness check HTTP endpoint.

Description

By enabling ready an HTTP endpoint on port 8181 will return 200 OK, when all plugins that are able to signal readiness have done so. If some are not ready yet the endpoint will return a 503 with the body containing the list of plugins that are not ready. Once a plugin has signaled it is ready it will not be queried again.

Each Server Block that enables the ready plugin will have the plugins in that server block report readiness into the /ready endpoint that runs on the same port. This also means that the same plugin with different configurations (in potentialy different Server Blocks) will have their readiness reported as the union of their respective readinesses.

Syntax

ready [ADDRESS]

ready optionally takes an address; the default is :8181. The path is fixed to /ready. The readiness endpoint returns a 200 response code and the word "OK" when this server is ready. It returns a 503 otherwise and the list of plugins that are not ready.

Plugins

Any plugin wanting to signal readiness will need to implement the ready.Readiness interface by implementing a method Ready() bool that returns true when the plugin is ready and false otherwise.

Examples

Let ready report readiness for both the . and example.org servers (assuming the whois plugin also exports readiness):

. {
    ready
    erratic
}

example.org {
    ready
    whoami
}

Run ready on a different port.

. {
    ready localhost:8091
}
