[💡 FEATURE REQUEST]: Redis powered lock's

[sicet7]

I failed to find the lock plugin in the Plugin dropdown for this Feature Request so i wrote it manually 😃

Plugin

Lock

I have an idea!

It would be awesome if the Lock Plugin supported other drivers like the KV Plugin does.

The configuration could look something like this:

lock:
  driver: redis
  config: # The config would be up to the implementing plugin to parse
    retry_interval: 100
    client:
      addrs:
          - "${REDIS_HOST:-127.0.0.1}:${REDIS_PORT:-6379}"
      username: "${REDIS_USERNAME}"
      password: "${REDIS_PASSWORD}"
      db: "${REDIS_DB:-0}"

That being said i already have a proof of concept redis locking plugin that could easily be plundered for any useful code for an implementation.

The configuration is like that because i fail to see a scenario where multiple lock drivers would be needed, but i could be wrong.
Also supporting multiple lock drivers at a time would also require a change in the PHP interface and implementation.

Hey @sicet7 👋🏻
This is a great idea. We have the concept of the community-driven plugins: https://docs.roadrunner.dev/docs/community-plugins/intro. It can be in any organization, if you feel, that you can support it, feel free to let me know. You only need to make a PR into docs to describe your plugin, add Velox (roadrunner-server/velox) configuration to build RR with your plugin (also in docs) and then I'll post an update about that plugin to the RoadRunner channel in our Discord server.
